I'm ready to buy a Yaesu FT-857D (160-6m) & (2, 440). I been away from Ham
Radio for more than 20 years & would like opinions on what would be the
absolute best omni-directional antenna(s) to buy, for this rig? All opinions
welcomed. Thank you.



Ain't no such beast!


Anyhow, if you are looking for omni-directional, I guess you are
looking at a vertical antenna. Of course it is hard to call most
verticals "absolute best". If I had to have only one antenna, it would
be a dipole

What are you planning on doing, how much land do you have, and are you
under any restrictions? And are you going to buy or make?
