Default Need help... End-fed, long wire or ????

You guys crack me up. The poor guy wanted a simple longwire solution.

I want one too, and that's how I found this thread.

I read in W1FB's Antenna Notebook that you can take a 1 wavelength
piece of wire, feed it with 75 Ohm coax 1/4 wavelength in from one
end, with the hot side going to the 3/4 wavelength piece and the
shield going to the 1/4 wavelength piece. It looks like you don't
need any type of tuner.

Has anybody tried that? I'm looking for a simple antenna for PSK-31
QRP that the homeowners association won't even see, and this looks
like the deal, but I can't find any corroboration for the concept.
