This antenna is essentially a half wave dipole with one important difference – the feedline is at the end of the antenna. The antenna is suspended at its ends by two included end insulators – one of which is integral to the matchbox.
The antenna may be suspended horizontally, as an inverter L, or sloping. Portable operation is easily accomplished by suspending the far end from a tree limb and letting the matchbox hang just above the ground. The antenna has been used from hotel rooms by hanging the matchbox end just outside the window and letting the far end hang, or preferably pulling it away from the building with a guy attached to the end insulator.
