There are any number of HF antennas you could erect as a new ham with a general license under your proverbial belt. Alabama ham Don Keith, N4KC is a prolific writer with 25 books to his credit. At the August 2021 QSO Today virtual Ham Expo, he presented a virtual talk he calls "N4KC's Top Five Get-It-On-The-Air-Quick Antennas. In our first excerpt from that talk, Don talked about his #1 choice, the common dipole. In our second excerpt he covers four more antennas he recommends. You'll find his entire audio/video not-for-broadcast presentation on the RAIN Report channel on YouTube.
