I srongly suggest the Hustler 4-BTV antenna or the 5-BTV. Depending on
the bands you want to use the 4-BTV does 10, 15, 20 and 40 very well. I
have one and have reached Spain, Russia, South America, the Galopigos
Is., and many other places far away from my Iowa shack.

It works very well.

The 5-BTV gives you 80 meter on top of the 4 offered by the 4-BTV.

Hi Paul -

The Hy-Gain AV620 and AV640 models have good reputations for this
type of antenna.

If you have a little bigger budget, can put in a full radial system,
and don't mind running a control cable, the SteppIR verticals should
perform extremely well.

I have a Sommer T-25, which is OK on 40, 20, 17, and 12, excellent
on 30 and 10, but poor on 15. I normally use my dipoles on all bands
except 10, where the Sommer performs best.

I suggest you check the eHam.net Reviews on antennas. It also
provides links to manufacturers sites, where you can (sometimes) get
additional information.
