How to add a slim jim antenna to an HF multiband vertical
Here's another great idea for your next ARRL Field Day Antenna. According to Steve Payne (W0KNI), it doesn't take much effort to add a 2m/70cm "slim jim" antenna to your multiband HF vertical antenna. With this antenna modification, you can get coverage from 40 meters through 70 cm in one antenna.

Finally, we’ll add this light-weight antenna to my DIY Multiband vertical antenna system, further expanding its capabilities. So stay tuned!
