Honeymoon? You're either a very brave OM or the YL is another very
understanding ham. :-) Best wishes!

Does anyone know of a super light weight 6M antenna for a light weight
DXpedtion?  (hopefully it's OK to ask here)

I'm thinking along the lines of a sub-5 lb class of antenna that might fit
into luggage.  This is my honeymoon, so no KW, no monster antennas, and
minimal operating time.  

I see that Hex-beam has a real light weight antenna.  And maybe Dunestar's 2
ele quad.  Are there any other options?  Or maybe someone has built a super
light weight yagi out of shock-corded tent poles?  

Outrageous location on Saba in early July.  One thought is to lay a wire
yagi on the deck...

Many thanks, Kenny K2KW
