A key component of your "bugout" bag or emergency "go-kit" is  the antenna. In this well-made video from "SurvivalComms", we get a simple step-by-step tutorial on how to design, build, test, and use an easily made, inexpensive VHF/UHF antenna for portable or field use.  Most of the components can be found locally, in your "junk box", or from fellow radio amateurs living nearby. The antenna is compact and folds easily into a small bag or knapsack--perfect for operations "in the field".  Why not make one of these antennas for your "go-kit" or for emergency use at your home station?
