Wow we have a brother doing ham radio. Very rare. You're like
The second one I have never seen. Keep it Up.
I appreciate you stopping by, watching, and showing support. Thanks! Like, subscribe, and get in the comments another time. See you out there. 73 de Bill
A lot of good tips, especially the V reverse bag toss. Thanks. Nice job on the video production, too.
Your kind words are much appreciated! Thank you. That’s the only video I have that gets constant attention, lol. If I was smarter I’d follow that pattern . . . Hmmmm. Anyway, I appreciate you taking time to watch and comment. 73 de K0WHW Bill
Very good video. Step by step instructions that demystifies antenna deployment.
Thanks for joining in on the conversation! I appreciate your good words. Actually, I made another video that's almost the same because I didn't think I did a thorough enough job on the first one. ruclips.net/video/OfXlsMrygc0/видео.html People who have never done a lot of these things or heard the terminology often get lost in the translation. I hope my videos help that kind of ham. I will see you out there. 73 de Bill
Thanks for the tip on throwing the bag. Can’t wait to try it out.
Thanks for stopping by! I want to share any tip I have found useful. I appreciate you taking time to jump in the conversation. See you out there. 73 de Bill
Thank you for the informative video. I opted for an EFHW, but was concerned on how to pull off the install, then I ran ran across this video. Quickly ordered that throw kit from Amazon. Thanks again bro.
Glad it helped! Thanks for stopping by. I appreciate you joining in the conversation. I'm not pushing videos, but I just did another video that is more-detailed about one way to use the throw line. ruclips.net/video/OfXlsMrygc0/видео.htmlsi=yBBe32He-axe1AD1
These methods are my goto whenever I'm out and there's a tree I can use. Hope to see you down the log. 73 de Bill
So true that there are so many ways to do this, but it's nice to see new, or different techniques. I have the same arborist items! I need to try throwing it behind me this way, so many times I've missed...lol....throwing it straight up, etc. It can be comical. Thanks for sharing. Be safe, 73
You're right lol. I just don't include the misses in the video, but they do happen. I didn't get smart enough to buy the proper weight until I zinged a make-shift weight (embarrassment for how stupid a choice it was won't let me exactly mention what it was) right toward someone's front window! Truth is I get more misses than right ons, but once it does get right on, its radio time lol. See you down the log. 73, Bill - K0WHW
@@Bill-HRT Oh, another tip, I keep a very inexpensive pair of leather work gloves in the throw bag, let that line burn through the skin once and that is all it takes!
Sure enjoyed the video! Thanks for sharing your method with us.
Glad you enjoyed it! I appreciate you taking the time to watch, and taking the time to comment. Thanks! 73 de K0WHW @Bill-HRT
Great and very useful tips. I investigated air launchers (spud guns) thought that in the areas I go they may prove a little on the dangerous/unpredictable side. So I did exactly what you've done. EFHW have been my go to antennas for quite a few years. I only run QRP when out in the field and I've just got hold of a spark plug UNUN, it's very neat and compact when packed for SOTA. I like your presentation and keeping it simple. Been a HAM for over 40 years and every day is a learning day, never too old for someone else's view on doing things. Keep it up and enjoy this great hobby. 73 de M0AZE Mike
Thanks for watching, and taking the time to say hello! I always enjoy reading these comments, and I enjoyed reading yours. It always reminds me of being part of a community. EFHWs are my goto. So, heaving the line as high as possible works best for me most of the time. Recently I made a half square, and I realized the under-slung method (for lack of a better description) works best when more precision is the goal. Maybe that’s my next video??? You’re right. We all are always learning. 73, Bill K0WHW
Great video! And I agree with your throw technique. Great Video… Keep em’ coming!
Thanks for stopping by, and thanks for joining in. Some agree with the technique, and some don’t. That’s ok. I have to use different methods depending on the tree and the property behind it.

Thanks for stopping by, and thanks for taking the time to say hello. I was as nervous as a long-tailed cat but Charlie was an awesome partner and helped me start to learn the ropes. See you down the log, 73 de Bill K0WHW
Nice, informative video. Great content! Thanks!
Thank you. Thanks for watching.
Last night on 40m I heard someone say he uses bow and arrow. EFHW is a nice configuration. I have one. It runs along the top of a wooden fence and then rises to a 16 foot tall inverted V. I reached someone in Hawaii last night from San Francisco.
Thanks for stopping by, watching, and taking time to join in the conversation. Yup, people use many techniques to get that antenna up there. I've never used the bow and arrow yet. The slingshot is another popular methods, and so is the spud gun. I have, however, used a drone with a drop mechanism, and that works well, too. Sounds like yours is making the trip pretty well. Good job. See you out there. 73 de Bill
That's a great setup! Thanks for sharing it! 73!
I'm glad to share what little I know and anything I find out from other helpful hams. Thanks for taking time to watch and comment. See you out there. 73 de Bill
Beautifully simple. Thanks, brother! 73
You bet!
Thanks. There were some techniques you used that I hadn't thought of before.
Thank you. I hope you share with someone else who might benefit. As well, share your ideas with me. I am always eager to learn. 73
Great video, keep posting!
Thanks much! I’ve got a couple in the hopper.
This is going to be insanely helpful. Getting an end fed soon for the QTH and can never seem to get a line far enough up in a tree when I had a wire antenna years ago. Thank you!

Great video. I just got EFHW and this is good info.
Thanks for watching and taking the time to join in the conversation. I also have another, more-detailed video just like this one. When I did the original, I kept thinking I needed to be clearer. Hope to see you in the comments again. See you out there. 73 de Bill
The throw is half the fun… Adam Kimmerly K6ARK has some great antennas. EFHW’s are great… but if I can a 26ga 20m speaker wire doublet works well… I rewatched your operational style... Tight & Lite, Simple & Effective! Thanks again!
A very nice guy at HRO one day just handed me a coil or bundle of what seemed like stranded bell or speaker wire out of his personal stash. He went on to share how small wire can be used in ways I hadn’t thought of. I’m glad you shared this about your doublet. Hopefully someone who’s trying to figure out an antenna will be inspired. I’ve used the small wires for an 80M loop on the roof and on another occasion the best 40M dipole I ever had.
Nice info. Thank you.

Great demonstration thanks for putting that up!
Hi. I really appreciate the positive comment! Thanks! The next video will be a simple launcher to help get antennas up and on the air. Stay tuned. 73, de Bill K0WHW
@@Bill-HRT I’m looking forward to that as I need to get a EFHW up 66+ feet soon. I have the trees, just haven’t figured out how to get it up there. I’m too old and too scared of heights to climb, lol.
I will get on that. In case you can't wait there are other videos or articles about using a Daisy wrist rocket bound in some way with a Zebco ( or other ) fishing reel. I saw one that really did the trick on field day; it was a project of Brian, W7JET. He got his dipole waaaay up there, to the top of the available trees, that is. I will work on the video. Maybe I can post a short of his launcher. 73
Well done sir!
Than you, Sir! I have a couple in the works. Takes me a bit to figure out the presentation, but I’m working on it.
Excellent Point how to get the Antenna up into the Trees. Since I have no disk no more my life became way different to what is was before. David & Golliath Method was my way to go all the Times before life mellowed me out to not going that crazy no more. I can't jump high up no more, throwing things with my arms as I used to nor climbing up trees. Depending on which area I wan to install my endfed antenna up in the Trees I have a slingshot with me shooting the Weight Bag hooked to a thin nylon fishing string over the Branches. Grabbing it with my hands to pull down without giving the Antenna Wire too much of tension. Plug in the Coax Cable to the Balun Box and the Radio. DONE -time to have fun 💯🎸🎸🎸👍. Nice Video, thx for this. 73 de Your Friend Uncle Guenter from the German Frontier 🍻🙋♂
Thanks for dropping by and taking the time to comment. I appreciated it. I like conversation, and you have brought up something I've been thinking about either just discussing or demonstrating in one of the next videos, the slingshot. One of my club members was just talking about your method because that's the method he uses. Just trying to get some of these ideas out in front of the new ham. Again, thanks and hope we get the chance to chat again.
@@Bill-HRT You welcome sir. Well your club buddy is absolutely right about what he mentioned to you. We portable HAM's rarely exceeding heights of more than 50ft. from the Ground to work with an dipole or endfed wire antenna so a slingshot works for us in a hard beat when our bare hands can't get the Job done any more.
If someone is planning to install one of these antennas for long terms to stay on his property on really tall trees but for some reasons he can't use a hydraulic truck to get the Wire up then a compound bow jumps in to finish up the Job. There's so many ways to go...I watched 2 young dudes in august last year who shortly licenced up a few month ago who used a quadcopter drone. They hooked up the insulation egg to the drone and flew it over the Top of the highest Branch of the Trees. By my personal estimate I would say they were easily 85ft. tall. These Guys were installing a fullsize G5RV Multiband Dipole 160-10m (204ft lenght).
A heavy heavy mike foxtrott antenna if gravitiy kicks inn. That was so awsome to watch these youngsters making their mojo working. They had to navigate the Drone around telephone lines and a light pole.
I should have video recorded it but I wasn't pre paired this to happen.
Weeks later I drove by the Place again and looked a gorgeous Inverted V antenna system. Next time I see these guys again I am going to ask for their callsigns and names. All I know by now is they are newbies in HAM Radio and I think they did a amazing great job on that antenna installation.
Happy monday my friend & stay safe. 73 de YFUG = Your Friend Uncle Guenter 🙋♂
That is great info to add to this story / journey. I think I saw those same gentlemen, and it inspired me to do the same. I used my quad to get my line up into a tree. I am not sure I'll do a video because there's one out there, but you're right; we have to figure it out, pass it on, or use good info that our fellow hams give us. Thanks so much for the conversation.
@@Bill-HRT
As the former Florida state representative, and assistant to the chief of the National Slingshot Association (currently defunct), I totally endorse the use of slingshots as antenna line propulsion devices, a/k/a ALPD.

On a budget, Walmart sells collapsible storage cubes that work great for this. Great video.
Outstanding idea! I wish I could have included this idea in my video. Next time I do a video on the subject I will try. Thanks for sharing this. That's what it is all about; figuring out the best way for each of us to what has to be done. 73 de Bill
Great suggestions. I may try the 26 gauge wire and your storage idea.
Go for it! I appreciate you stopping by, watching the video, and taking your valuable time out to join in the conversation. Try something out, and come back and let us know how it worked out. Everything is an evolution, right? Maybe your way will help me and others. See you out there. 73 de Bill
Excellent video, to the point. I have you subscribed . Looking forward checking out your other videos. Thanks and 73, John WB4AXY.
Thank you for the supportive, kind words! I enjoy sharing, and I enjoy the idea of helping people be successful. I am enjoying the journey of learning how to share via RUclips video. There’s a learning curve lol. 73, Bill K0WHW
Nice video. Fyi - Adam K6ARK, his last name is Kimmerly . Hope to bump in to you someday on the air. Thanks for making this well done video to show these methods!
Thanks for the info! And, Thanks for spending your time watching my video. I am always open to suggestions, corrections, and new things that I just don't know. I think someone else told me that too because I couldn't remember in the video, but now it I think I would feel strange saying his last name because everyone else calls him Adam K6ARK lol. I look forward to being able to chat again about another video. 73
Nice demonstration! I ordered a mini drone so I don’t have to throw anything - operations on both shoulders.
Hi! Thanks for stopping by, watching, and jumping into the conversation. I appreciate it. The last line I put up for my loop was done with a drone and an inexpensive, Amazon remote drop rig. Drones work! See you out there. 73 de Bill

Thanks! I appreciate your words. I'll keep trying to help where I can like others have helped me.
Great job! 73
Thanks! More to come as soon as I figure how to make the clock stop, lol.
Nice. Curious how the wire touching tree branches and leaves effects it’s performance or safety if using and amp? Thanks so much. Great job.
I was always taught that everything can affect the antenna. You are right in mentioning this as something that must be accounted for. Sometimes in the beginning I would let this stop me or doubt the effectiveness of my antenna. Overall though for the types of deployments I do (10 watts and an efhw), a branch or some leaves does not ruin my expectations. Most of my antenna deployments are for portable operations. Most of my deployments are 10 watts. Branches and leaves don't ruin the activation. Sometimes I use the KXPA100 with my KX3. It's 100 watts, and again no problems. I do not have any experience with an amp beyond 100 watts with my qrp radios. I know my antics aren't the be all and end all. However, for any new people who are worried about whether they can do it, I am here to say, "Yes you can". Thanks for mentioning the consideration. Thanks as well for taking the time to watch and comment.
thank you
You're welcome! I appreciate the 'thank you' a lot. I added an affiliate link in the video description ( you don't have to order from there ) and you can see the one I ended up buying. The Weaver gear and the notch weights have held up really well. 73 de Bill
I have one of those weights on order. Should be here by Thursday. In time for field day. I will be at the superstition location Saturday at least.
Cool! I have heard that weight is too heavy, but it works for me so far. Thanks for stopping by and taking time to comment!
Thanks great video. What did you use to kie the bag to the rope .
Thanks for watching and taking time to ask a question! I generally use the 3mm line and the 14oz weight. Some will tell you that's too much, and some will tell you they use more. You do what works for you! I get mine on Amazon: amzn.to/43XKzx5. Both sides of my throw line have the little S-biner, or carabiner made by Nite Ize; I get those at Lowes and Home Depot. The nite ize s-biners are usually near where they sell and make keys. A good knot will do the same thing and probably be less likely to hang up in a tree, but I have never had that problem, yet(!). I hope this answers your question. If not, ask me again until I understand, lol. See you down the log. 73 de K0WHW Bill
KISS Method. I LIKE IT !
Thanks! Thanks for watching and taking the time to join the conversation. There are lots of techniques out there; each for a different occasion. See you down the log. 73 de Bill
The David and Goliath method works best but you should swing forward keep looking where you want to send the line and release as you swing release the line a few inches with each rotation
Thanks for joining in on the conversation! Thanks for watching and taking time! You may be right. I had shoulder surgery, and never got my throwing arm back. I’d need to practice the accuracy with the David and Goliath method; I saw K4SWL use it the other day and he did a great job. There is more than one way to skin that cat. See you out there. 73 de Bill
Great video! Hey could you put some links for the gear you are using? I am very curious about what you are using and where to find it.
Hi. Thanks for stopping by and taking time with the videos! I don't know exactly which equipment you are interested in, but I will try.
If I go to the Weaver Leather Arborist site:
thearboriststore.com/collections/climbing-gear-throwlines-weights?view=48
This are some of the items, but I usually get them from Amazon. Do a search on Amazon for Weaver Arborist; add throw line if you still don't get at what you are looking for
The Niteize site lists the carabiners, but I always get them at Home Depot:
niteize.com/hardware/s-biners-carabiners?gclid=Cj0KCQjw0umSBhDrARIsAH7FCodN_y8vWRsVPjpZhz_W6qwtmOk4iPTGpbIV7usI12XVS0KwyUyOACUaAgtbEALw_wcB
Sometimes these carabiners are at the front various stores like Michaels or Autozone as impulse buy items.
If there is something else, feel free to ask. 73 & Thanks!
@@Bill-HRT Thanks for your response. I am also looking for a good source of antenna wire as well.
I got turned on to #26 wire by a K6ARK video. Adam’s video gave a source for #26 Polystealth. I can’t remember the source or the exact video. I did find it at Ham Radio Outlet, so there’s a source for it. They also have other sizes of Polystealth. They have other suitable wire, as well. I have had good success with different sizes of that particular wire. None of this is to say another manufacturer or distributor does not have something you will prefer. I just happen to be content with that particular wire.
While I was at Phoenix HRO, one of the guys was really generous and gave me a big length of what is or is just like a stranded version of bell wire. Really cool on his part! I’m sorry I can’t remember his name; might be Mike at the Phoenix HRO . . . Anyway, there’s another possibility for you as you’re looking around.
@@Bill-HRT Thanks so much for the source, I will check it out.
Nice video. How high can you get that in the tree?
Thank you! Uh . . . Is it terrible that I have never actually measured? I am going to do some sort of accurate measurement and get back to you. I am usually happy to get it up high enough that swr is good on the efhw, and the antenna is getting out enough for the activation.
Thanks for taking the time to watch and leave a comment!
What were those container’s you cart you antenna in. I never could understand.
Thanks for watching. i appreciate you taking time to comment and question. Those were larger pill-type containers. I guess i was making the point that the K6ARK antenna was so small and hardly took up any room. I dont use them a lot anymore cuz i just printed a small winder. Ill see you out there. 73 de Bill
I know this is old, but I like those large pill containers... what are they (product name, or size)
Thanks for watching and taking the time to join in the conversation. Here’s the Amazon link: amzn.to/4dU4PoE This is one of my most watched videos.

ruclips.net/video/OfXlsMrygc0/видео.html Thanks, again. See you out there. 73 de Bill
Just a small note: buy at least 400g throwing bag, preferably 450-500g one.
I absolutely agree. That is the weight of both of mine. I think, if I’ve got my conversion correct, that works out to 16 ounces. Others say that’s too much, but that is the weight I like. Thank you for watching, and taking the time to comment!

Thank you!
I want to get my antenna up a real tree, I tried shooting it with a spud gun but that only goes 120 feet up the tree, I want to get higher. Any ideas?
Thanks for stopping by, and thanks for the question! I have only used a couple of methods. I've got a video coming soon about using a drone. I use this device amzn.to/442V6bn to drop a weighted line over the right spot. There are several guys with videos about this method. It has it's own set of complications whether you are licensed, need to be, or live near an airport or airspace with restrictions. Do what's best for you. Recently, I switched to the "David and Goliath slingshot method" which I don't usually do. I needed to get higher than usual. I tried it. I had to practice a lot 'cuz it didn't work right away for me. This may not work for you if the spud gun doesn't. The last thing I can think of is the wrist rocket slingshot, the fishing weight and the fishing line. I've seen that go pretty high. Let me know what you think. I look forward to you coming back and sharing what works for you. See you later. 73 de Bill
What us that weight thingy ?
That’s is a throw-line weight. It is used to throw lines into trees, designed to not get snagged while it’s going through leaves/branches, and to be durable to take impact when it hits the ground on the other side.
Thank you !!! 73 W8VHS
Thanks for taking the time to give support. It is appreciated. 73, Bill
i use a fishing pole and a sling shot.
Thanks for taking the time to comment! You're using a good method. I saw one of my buddies use a Wrist Rocket and pole that was made of PVC. It Zinged that sinker up and over a super tall tree! They did that twice, and had a dipole way up in the air for field day. I've been promising to make a video on that, but just don't get around to it. You are using a good technique. Hope to see you out there, and on the log. 73 de K0WHW @Bill-HRT.
I’d hate to try and get a weight over a tree limb at a picnic spot with people watching after the first failed attempt.
Thanks for jumping in the comments and joining the conversation! It is much appreciated. Yeah, a couple times I felt the embarrassment, but my drive to get the radio on the air soon overcame that. I don't even notice now. Same thing with CW. My goal is to get er' done, and what people I know or don't know think about it rarely gives me pause when my throws look awful or my cw isn't close to perfect, lol. Keep tossing! They ain't paying attention anyway. See you out there. 73 de Bill
How do you know that it's a "her"?
Hi! I do like to respond to every comment, but I am having trouble figuring out what you are asking.??? Did I say "her" in this or another video, and the reference is ambiguous or somehow offensive? I never intend to offend. Just let me know.
@@Bill-HRT
6:06-6:07 "...and haul her up." Not offensive at all - just wondering how you determined it's gender... ; )
BTW, Adam's last name is "Kimmerly", as per QRZ.
Lol! I do remember saying that! All I can say is that when I’m videoing, I’m a bit nervous. Half the time what ends up coming out of my mouth is not exactly what I wrote down or intended to say. If the general idea makes it out of my mouth, I say “whew”, and move on.
If I have to overthink it (which I have done in the past), I remember that honored vessels often take on the female gender. Since I am very fond of that antenna, and it has carried me around the world, “haul ‘er up” it is!

It's okay, the governor has given you a pardon. ; )

Not knocking this at all. It seems like a great product but for me, I just took a baseball and taped my rope to the baseball with duct tape and threw the baseball 40ft over the tree/branch that it needed to go over. The rope made it over the tree and the baseball came right down. Boom! Simple and easy. One time I even used fishing wire and attached it to my drone and flew my drone over the tree. Worked out perfectly. No purchasing needed. No purchasing of a throw line, air launcher and all the other stuff people buy to get a rope up in the tree. There are many ways you can get it done without the purchase of throw lines and air launchers.
You are absolutely right! I did the same thing with my drone. Most people don’t have a drone, though. As well, the weight is a little easier to carry than a baseball. Of course different strokes for different folks. I once tied my 25ft tape measure to a line . . . Almost broke my neighbor’s window, and boy did it come down hard. That’s when I bought the throw weight, lol. I am glad you watched and took the time to comment. See you out there. 73 de Bill
Creepy drug deal in the background.
Not likely, lol. It's an upscale neighborhood in Arizona full of old people without strageler, free-loading, younger relatives living with them. The only drug deal you will see there is Amazon or Walgreen's delivering heart or gout medications. There is a school next door with ball field; what you see are people going to the school game, illegally parking in the residential neighborhood, and afraid to pop out in front of me with a camera.

Sorry, but I couldn't watch this video. Please, get rid of the background music. It is very distracting and for those with hearing problems, makes it almost impossible to understand the person speaking.
I am sorry it was not a good experience. I appreciate you bringing this to my attention. I had not considered that this would be an issue. I am new to this, and I am grateful you took the time to leave a comment and make me more aware. Many of my videos have the sound; I will look into making my videos a good experience for all.
