 ===== The Vertical =====
 The Amateur Radio HF vertical antenna is a type of radio antenna designed for use in the high-frequency (HF) range of the radio spectrum. It typically consists of a vertical radiating element, often a vertical conductor or set of conductors, supported by a mast or other structure. HF vertical antennas are popular among amateur radio operators for transmitting and receiving signals on multiple HF bands. They offer an omnidirectional radiation pattern, making them suitable for general communication, and their vertical orientation helps in minimizing ground losses. Some variations may include additional features such as radials to improve efficiency and performance.

 Both the EFHW and EFLW can be deployed in creative ways, e.g. slopers, wound around poles, inverted L, fully horizontal, but might need some adjustment to compensate for that (and the surroundings).
