Hi Eduardo,

Of course a simple dipole would work, but for gain, maybe a dipole beam might 
be better.

I like to use a horizontal collinear, this is what I use on 20 meters.

http://home.comcast.net/~kg7hf/TheStation/20m_stacked_collinear.JPG

It of course could be scaled to operate very effectively at 6 meters.   I have 
also used a single element which is not stacked on 20, and from a remote island 
in Vermont, was able to work 48 countries in the EU with QRP of 5 watts.

It is a very effective antenna.

73s,
Paul
