I was looking into building a simple (cheap) vertical for 10/15/20. I have
a B&D 20' Crappie available and was wondering about using the three
conductor rotor control cable from Radio Shack for the radiator & radials.
For the radials as well as the radiator I was going to cut out sections for
20 meters then prune the other wires for 10 & 15 meters.
Does this sound like a viable antenna or should I just make a 20 meter
vertical and use a tuner for the other bands? Would like to not have to buy
a tuner right now but will if I must.
