[Elecraft] Miniature self-supporting HF antennas

[Dr. William J. Schmidt, II]

I use a Superantennas YP3 with my own modeled tunings and some refinements
(new set of coils and full sized elements on 12 meters too).  30-160 I just
use dipoles. rolls of wire pre-cut with dog-leash clips on the end that snap
onto a balun and alligator clips on the balun wire leads for attachment to
the antenna wire.  So far with this set-up I've worked more than 140,000
contacts in the Caribbean, 172 countries, close to 8BWAS. and all with a
radio (K3) I can tuck into my back-pack, and antennas I can carry in my
luggage.  Lots of you have worked me as J68HZ. over 100,000 of you!
