Top Band Vertical Small Garden/Back Yard Antenna
If you want to operate on Amateur Radio's "Top Band" (160 meters), but don't have enough space for an antenna, please follow the instructions in this well-organized video from Mike (M0MSN). The key to succeeding with a short vertical antenna on this band is a homemade coil to compensate for the loss of full antenna length. Mike takes you step-by-step in the making this coil and shows you how to adjust your vertical to cover "Top Band."
