Last aid antenna for 60m - helical whip

Hello all,

are you one of those wretches with absolutely no space (mean zero space) for antenna and you would like to try QSO on 60m band?

Well except the magnetic loops you can try also this crazy helical whip...


Please forget it if you have space for at least 10m piece of wire outside to be used as random wire antenna (horizontal, zig-zag, sloped or even vertical) and grounding point or counterpoise close to your ham-shack...


If there is no way for anything better and for some reasons you can not use the small loops then your last wretch's aid is this helical stick.
