Simple, stealthy, multi-band vertical DX antenna

If you need an easily deployable, stealthy DX antenna, please try this design from Tim (G5TM).  I've built several of these antennas, and they work well, despite some loss of efficiency. If you can't see the video, please insert this title URL into your browser search box:  https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=n6bcmSreFSk Here are some comments from Tim (G5TM): Just one 4 or 7 metre long vertical wire fed at the base with a remote tuner and a decent, easy to transport, ground system. A good idea for a quick to erect and remove portable and/or low profile antenna for stealthy home installations.

Simple, Stealthy, Multi-band Vertical Antenna

If you need a simple, easily assembled HF antenna for both home and portable use, please try this "stealthy, multi-band vertical antenna" from Tim (G5TM). With the exception of a wide-range antenna transmatch (i.e. "tuner"), you should have most of the materials for this project in your junk box.  Stores such as Loew's, Home Depot, or Ace Hardware offer a variety of parts, including wire, support rope, and insulators.
