Comment: Now that propagation is favoring the lower HF bands (160m, 80m, and 40m), it may be time to consider a simple, inexpensive antenna to cover these bands.  This article discusses 22 simple to moderately challenging antennas for "Top Band", otherwise known as 160 meters.  Detailed drawings illustrate the basic construction details of these antennas, which can be built from locally available materials. Here are some of the antennas featured in this article: Random Length Wire Antenna for 160 meters. Delta Loop Antenna. Half Delta Loop Antenna. Full-Wave Loop Antenna. These are the basic antennas that will get you on 160 meters with a minimum of time and expense. Here are some oth...
