Here's another great portable antenna idea from Simon Stribling (VA7BIX).
According Simon, the heart of his new antenna is cheap jewelry wire and a few basic tools. This antenna system is ideal for POTA, SOTA, and even stealthy HOA antenna installations.
The antenna package is lightweight and adaptable to many operating environments.

G'day mates, I'm so excited to be getting this video out there. I think this antenna is going to be a great antenna for it's ultra portability factor - not to mention, it is resonant on 8 bands! from 70cm to 20 meters, and I am yet to test it on 40 and 80 and 160 meters hahaha. That video is coming! Wooohooo. Enjoy the show mates and thanks so much for watching. Cheers and beers, Simon VA7BIX

Bernie does an excellent job of explaining the pros and cons of this popular HF antenna from the late Louis Varney (G5RV). Although Varney envisioned his design primarily as a 3/2 wavelength antenna for the 20 meter Amateur Radio band, radio amateurs have used the antenna for multiband use. The G5RV is an excellent choice for the 20 meter band. Performance on other HF Amateur Radio bands is good enough to qualify as stand alone HF antenna if you can only erect one HF antenna.

Don't let deed-restricted properties (HOA/CC&R) stop you from enjoying Amateur Radio. In this video from AC2RJ, we see how some well-placed trees, a camera tripod, a telescoping fiberglass mast, and a "V" antenna can get you on the air without a lot of effort. Add an antenna "tuner", a sturdy rig, such as the Yaesu FT-817, a microphone/cw key, and a simple grounding system, and you have a fully functional, nearly invisible ham station in your backyard.

Here's a way to use Amatuer/Ham Radio while you work on shedding a few pounds in useful exercise. Why not equip your bicycle for 2 meter/70 cm mobile operation? In this short, well-made video, "taverned" shows us how he used a mag mount antenna, a simple C clamp, and a basic ground system to convert his mountain bike into a mobile station. The project is straight forward, simple, and gives you emergency communications while you peddle down the road.
