My challenge for the low bands is getting something straight in a garden
only 40ft * 45ft. Last year for the CCs I used a doublet wrapped around the
garden. This weekend I've put up an inverted L, 30ft vertical and about 40ft
horizontal diagonally across the garden. Not very long but at least it is
straight and roughly a quarter wave on 80. I've put in an earth stake and a few
radials. Matching isn't perfect but good enough to give it a try.
First test will be this weekend.
I'd be interested in any other proven small garden solutions.
