Portable Antenna Set up for Parks on the Air
These are a few of tested antenna configurations that I have deployed successfully with my Parks on the Air Activations. Each Parks on the Air site is unique and I take a different approach to maximize contacts. I use a fiberglass retractable mast with an overall length of 32 feet. For each antenna deployment I also use a set of (4) counterpoise radials with a quick disconnect at the base of the antenna.

Excellent Antenna for HOA Stealth Operation

This is an excellent portable antenna. I mounted this on white vinyl fence with a ground rod. I live in a restricted HOA environment and can not put up a large antenna. I did add (6) ground radials in the yard which made a big difference.

I was able to make contact on 20 meter and 15 meter to Germany, PR, Antigua, Italy, Cayman Islands and the Bahamas. The antenna has a very slim profile and can easily be folded down into the stealth position when not in use. These contact s were made with no coil, I am adding a Wolf Coil to the antenna to help with the other bands.
