Anyone got a  favorite portable antenna?  I am anticipating some camping over the memorial Day weekend and need to start assembling parts and pieces as the commercial says.  I would like to operate 75 through 10 if the bands are open and I can develop antennas.

Does anyone have construction details on a quad loop?  I understand that to be likely to have less noise than a g5rv.  

Also what is your favorite technique as a blind guy to getting a line over that high tree branch (in this case pine) to lead your antenna skyward?




Thank You!
