A 102-inch vertical whip, commonly a CB antenna, forms the core of this low-profile 10-meter antenna design, optimized for the 28 MHz band. The construction details specify three 8-foot radials made from scrap wire, connected to a common point. This simple yet effective setup is designed for ease of construction and deployment, making it accessible for operators with limited space or materials. The design emphasizes using readily available components, including PVC pipe for the mast and a SO-239 connector for the feedline, ensuring a straightforward build process for a resonant quarter-wave vertical. Field results indicate that this antenna provides good performance for local and DX contacts on 10 meters, despite its compact footprint. The author, N8WRL, shares practical insights into its construction and tuning, highlighting its suitability for temporary or permanent installations where a full-sized antenna might be impractical. Comparisons to more complex designs suggest that this low-profile vertical offers a respectable signal-to-noise ratio and effective radiated power for its size, proving that simple designs can yield satisfying on-air results.
