BUT, even better, is just stringing up 30 - 60 feet of wire & hooking it up to

It is better if you're in a cabin in the woods.


It's not better if you're in a hotel room, though.

For hotel rooms, loops are pretty good. Most will fit in a suitcase,
and they're less likely to pick up RFI than a broomstick or whip.

I suppose if you expected to use it often, you could make one in the lid
of your suitcase or attaché case - though these might be a little more
interesting than you'd like at airports.



Delightful observation on both points! It *could* make for a very
intersting (and possibly quite effective) antenna,and it *could* make
for a world of grief in airports! Shazam!
