Default Yo-Yo Tenna

My new SteppIR vertical hiccupped and is on its way back to the factory. Desperate for a backup I rummaged through the basement in the motorhome and dug out the Yo-Yo Tenna that I’ve been planning to set up some day while camping but haven’t gotten around to yet.
I stung it from a tree about 22 feet up in an inverted V and I was really please with how well it works. I did make a “sort-of” contact with a VK this morning running 500 watts. I say sort-of because he gave me a signal report and I did hear him use my call sign.
If you are looking for very light easy to use effective temporary dipole, you might want to check this one out. Here’s where you can get more info: http://www.hamradiofun.com/
