Could someone tell me how to make a single-wire antenna that can pick
up TV channel 5? I just need to know what length is best and what
material to use.


VHF Channel 5 is centered around 79 MHz. So two 3 foot pieces of
aluminum tubing connected in the center to a piece of 75 ohm coax
should do the job.
