 Several people have asked about the antenna I am using on top band
The antenna is described in detail in the APRIL 1984 CQ magazine starting on 
page 20 as WHAT LOOKS LIKE A BIRDCAGE FOR A 2000 POUND CANARY  The article is 
available for download from their archive website  
 http://hamcall.net/cqcgi/?res=l&yr=1984&mo=04 ; and is pictured on the cover of 
October 1981 CQ
 
It is a military surplus antenna that was designed for use on  missle sites in 
the late 1950s
