Hi All!    I am building this for 2 meter sideband(horizontal 
polarization)... It was developed by a Japanese Ham,    Hentenna 
(meaning strange),   it can also be built for 6 meters...  cost is 10 
foot of 1/2 inch copper pipe, 2 copper T's, 2 copper caps, and 4 -   90 
degree copper elbows, and rosin and solder to "sweat" the antenna 
together.  No tuning required, more resonant in lower portion of 2 
meters, but still less than 1.8 SWR at 146 MHz...

             Just FYI...    73!   Steve...
