I used to have a G5RV multiband horizontal, but now use a homemade small transmitting loop made from copper plumbing pipe, with a high voltage capacitor made from aluminum flashing from home depot, some pressboard I found in a dumpster, and a plastic chewing tobacco tin for a dial. Hangs from a hook in the ceiling and works like a charm. Homebrewing and fun is what ham radio is all about.
