Build a dirt cheap speaker wire vertical antenna for HF.


You don't need a lot of money to make a simple, effective multiband HF vertical antenna.

In this video from Walt (K4OGO),  we see how a few basic materials and some inexpensive speaker wire can be transformed into a 20 meter through 10 meter vertical antenna.

Walt made this antenna for a trip to Europe.  His results were good considering the materials used for the project.

Why not make this antenna for your "Go-Kit" or "Bug Out Bag?"

Here are some comments from Walt (K4OGO):

Build an effective and inexpensive vertical antenna for any HF band. In this video I show you how to make speaker wire verticals to cover 20 through 10 meters. #hamradioantenna #hamradio #amateurradio Link to my drawing plan can be found on the Coastal Waves & Wires Facebook page.
