3.4.7 Portable Antennas
Portable whip antennas make excellent radiators and can
be used in a number of configurations. Examples include
fixed whip antennas like SGC’s SG-307 whip and 10 foot
collapsible whips available from a number of vendors.
One popular antenna uses a whip erected as a vertical
antenna with radial wires extending from its base. There
are a number of stands available commercially or a simple
stand can be created with an antenna mounting and
several pieces of wood.
