Jimmy,

It was the portable HamStick antenna. They have one for different
bands.

I looked it up - not a bad price!

Hams are frugal cheapskates, after all.

I still intend to hang my fan dipole - at least for 10m - but
if I choose to start using HF from home a lot, I'll want
something that will hit other bands too...

Now, if the bands will just cooperate.

True... The radio will do 10m to 160m though...

Why stop at $20?? <G>

Introductary price... ;-) Once you HOOK them... ;-)

I'm going to use remotehams.com -- as it'd be easier for me. The
only time that I'm on the air is for my nets, or checking into some
selected nets. I *RARELY* get a sked request.

When I hung it (still have to finish running coax and the lightning
arrestor) I was able to run the 2nd set as well, so should be 10m and
20m for sure.

Well, I still haven't run the electricity (upgrading to Anderson
powerpole power distribution block) nor run the coax through the
wall. :-)
