[CQ] Radio/Antenna possiibilitiess? - Fwd: [Noisebridge-discuss] Free July 27-8 Kite Festival Berkeley Marina - Fwd: [BerkTIPGlobal]

[AF6MQ]

use regular kite string to fly kite high up into good air.
attach a slider-knot to the string,
and use to hang a thin-wire vertical down to ground.
let out more-less kite string to hold vertical antenna wire at height.

trick: keeping the wire hanging over the operator station :)

or, same as above, but with BIG kite, 
and hang center of inverted-V fed with lightweight tv twinlead.

real neat would be fly two big kites,
and use them to hold either side of a vertical delta or quad loop.

either way, all feedline is HEAVY,
so anything with feeds at the bottom and light-wire for the air.

check in to "noontime net" 7.2685mhz if you get 40m goin!
