I concur with Gert recommending a SteppIR 3 element beam. I chose it because 
of it's mono band operation on every frequency from 13.9Mhz to 53Mhz and 
everything in between and it isn't a monster. Besides, it doesn't weigh a 
ton and can be easily torn down to move it. During icy winter days here in 
the Buffalo, NY area all I do is retract the elements that fide inside 16 
foot fiberglass poles of sorts. I've had it up for almost two years now.
Oh, by the way the SteppIR people are terrific to work with!!!
I'm currently waiting for the 30M and 40M add on kit for my 3 element 
SteppIR beam.
Just my two cents.
