Talking with Ross, VK1UN, the other day we stumbled on the simple idea of using figure 8 speaker wire as the feed line up to an "inverted V" dipole held up with a squid pole. Compared to feeding with coax up to a balun, this is extremely light weight and so doesn't bend the squid pole too much.
The video above takes you through how it works.
This is the antenna a plan to take to the next Sydney QRP by the harbour event coming up in October.
