If you can't see this video, please insert this title URL into your browser search box:   https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bDo6E27Wnd4 .  This is post 2217 in a continuing series of simple ham radio antennas. Thanks to Tim (G5TM) for this excellent introduction to Amateur/Ham Radio antennas. Although the video applies directly to UK radio amateurs who passed the Fondation exam, the suggestions made by Tim can used by any ham radio operator who wants a good, effective antenna at a reasonable price. Tim does a good job describing the pros and cons of  various antenna designs and whether you should make your own antennas or find a commercial product.  ----- 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://bi
