Frank Donovan (W3 LPL) presented this informative, excellent antenna tutorial at the January 2016 meeting of the Frankford Radio Club. Frank offers helpful, valuable suggestions on how radio amateurs can maximize the performance of their antennas in the lower HF bands during a period of uncertain propagation.  Frank discusses antenna polarization and the need for both receiving and transmitting antennas for 160 and 80 meters. Frank's program would make an excellent presentation for any amateur radio club or for an amateur radio license class.  Frank's tutorial is clear, concise, and easy to follow.
