Re: [A/S] Good bumper mount ideas?



Warren,
My favorite antenna for field day is the Airstream Loop as described 
in March 1969 QST. It not only is unobtrusive, light and quick to 
erect, small and stores in a small grocery sack but is also quite 
effective; competing with a home QTH dipole at 20' according to the 
author, Phil Rand W1DBM.

I don't know if there is an archive of QST or not, but you will be 
quick to spot that issue as it is the cover story with an Airstream 
close-up in the picture.

I have moved my residence recently and still have not unpacked my 
books, so if there is an interest it may take a few days for me to 
retrieve that issue. I  will continue the discussion off list (as it 
is boring to non-hams).
