.This antenna is made from 300 ohm ladder line and is constructed as what is commonly
known as a J pole.  It is a 1/2 wave radiator and requires no ground radials.  This makes
it the perfect "stow and go" antenna for any field or portable operation.   It is also a
great option for fixed stations that can not have external antennas.  Just stick it to the
wall with a thumb tack and you are on the air!
