I Built the POTA PERformer Antenna, So Others May Learn.
The POTA PERformer (Portable, Elevated, Resonant) was designed by
Greg Mihran KJ6ER. In this video I walk you through the complete
build process for 20 meters, every part, every connection, every
step, explained in plain English so any ham can follow along.
No engineering degree required. If you can cut wire and use a
connector, you can build this antenna.
📡 WHAT IS THE POTA PERformer?
A quarter-wave elevated vertical with two tuned radials. The
feedpoint sits roughly 5 feet off the ground on a tripod, which
means you only need two radials instead of a buried ground plane.
Lightweight, packs small, deploys fast. Perfect for Parks on the
Air, portable HF, camping, or emergency operations.
