[Elecraft] RF in the Trees

[K8JHR]

This guy comae up with a variation on the OCF Dipole that matches well 
on many bands and has been field tested in contests by a station in 
Germany.  Lightweight, low profile, durable, especially good for QRP or 
field day operations.

Maybe it will give you an idea or two... I understand the developer 
spent countless hours modeling, testing, re-modeling, re-testing, etc., 
until he got the right feed point offset to maximize low SWR on multiple 
bands, as if looking for the holy grail of antennas.

I have no financial interest in any of it, but if the balun comes potted 
in epoxy, it was kinda my idea ...   ;-)
