Default HF random wire antenna

Hi,
I have limited space for a HF antenna, so I built a random wire antenna.
The instructions I found (in Finnish):

I wound the balun and bought 20 m wire. Then, OH1NT, an older ham, adviced me
that 40 m wire would be better for 80 m band. So I hung up 40 meters of wire.
So far I have received good reports at least from European stations. I look
forward to DX QSO's.



Hi Juha,

Just what I needed. (In finnish: Tata ma olen aina halunnu...)
