Here's another great antenna for the 160 meter amateur radio band.  All you need is a kite and 80 meters (262.467 feet) of strong wire.  Of course, a good wind really helps get this antenna into the air. According to "Steph", the entire antenna system is fairly simple and produces excellent results: "Using 80m of wire and a kite on the beach with backpack radio to operate on the 160m amateur radio ham band." ---------- For the latest Amateur/Ham Radio news and information, please visit these websites: http://www.HawaiiARRL.info. http://www.arrl.org. http://www.blubrry.com/arrlaudionews/ http://www.hamradioupdate.com. http://www.southgatearc.org. https://oahuarrlnews.wordpress.com. https://hamradiohawaii.wordpress.com. https://bigislandarrlnews.com. https://www.eham.net. https://paper.li/f-1576465810
