The 10 meter Amateur Radio Band is opening, thanks to increased propagation supported by the active solar cycle 25.
In this video from Michael Martens (KB9VBR), we see how a simple inverted V dipole can bring the world to your ham station at minimal expense.
10 meter antennas are small, compact, and highly portable, making them perfect for both home and field use.

Here are some comments from Michael (KB9VBR):
The ARRL 10 meter contest was last weekend. What a great time to put together a quick dipole antenna and get on the air.
