Thanks to Chuck (KK6USY) for this 20 meter half-square antenna, which he calls the “easiest DX antenna” for ham radio.
The antenna is fairly easy to build and exhibits gain over a common dipole antenna.
The video explores 3 variants of this antenna which can be used for portable and home station use.
