We used NVIS antennas in Viet Nam to communicate with the A teams...and they
ranged from 2 to 20 foot above ground...the base stations were generally not in
the jungle....worked great out to about 500 miles...EyeRing sells a special
operations antenna to the military that is designed to lie on the ground or to
be elevated up to about 36 inches....have actually used one on 160 and it
worked surprisingley well....Dick W4NTG
