[TowerTalk] 80m small antenna

[Chris Adams]

I'm looking for ideas for a small, attic mounted 80m antenna.

The attic is about 24' in length and 10-12' high at the peak.  Presently
I have a Cushcraft D-3 dipole for 20-10.  I'm planning on putting up a
40m dipole with significant end loading, but I don't have any good ideas
for an 80m antenna in such limited space.

It seems like a loop antenna might be about my only choice but the
reviews have read have not been particularly enthusiastic.  On the other
hand, my expectations are not to work dx, just to get a couple of mult's
in the NAQP tests, etc.

Please reply direct and I'll summarize and post if there's interest.
