In this videoI show how I make your own DIY 20m Half Square antenna with brackets I made on my 3D printer. Can’t put up a really high horizontal antenna for 80-meter DXing? Maybe the vertically polarized “Half-Square” might bethe antenna for you. Merch. : https://kk6usy-ham-radio-adventures.m... As an Amazon Associate I earn from qualifying purchases.
