Testing a half square antenna on 14 MHz. Comprising a wavelength of wire bent into a wide inverted U, the half square over a good ground can radiate a low angle signal suitable for long distance HF contacts. Construction is simple. Just take 22m of wire and string it up on two poles 11m apart, with equal lengths hanging down. Connect one to an antenna coupler and load it against short counterpoise wire(s).
