Extremely portable and light elevated radial setup

Sometimes, you don’t need an extensive radial system for your POTA-SOTA operations.

In this video, Scott (W3GTR) shows how you can boost the performance of a quarter wavelength vertical antenna with a simple elevated radial system.  In Scott’s case, the antenna uses 2 elevated radial wires to complete his antenna installation.

Scott has his entire antenna system contained in an easy-carry pouch with a tripod.
