Default Backpack Antenna, help please

Hi All

I want to construct a backpack antenna that can be left on my rucksack and
used when walking.

The plan is to have a FT817 on my waist and the antenna fitted to the
rucksack. I been playing with a mobile antenna today and can not get the SWR
down without trailing a wire. I don't want a wire trailing behind me.

Any ideas for a 2m antenna that can be left on a rucksack when walking and
used for transmittion. Height is not a major problem but it has to realistic
and robust.

Thanks
Steve
