[Elecraft] Miniature self-supporting HF antennas

[Rick M0LEP]

That is exactly what I did, with the help of a friend a reasonable 
distance away with a reasonable S-meter, repeated antenna swapping, and 
a little help from skimmers on the RBN for control. I'm pretty sure the 
difference is real. I'd rather carry a lightweight telescopic pole with 
the means to guy it, and use an inverted-V dipole than trust that loaded 
vertical to get me contacts.
