I'm mainly a qrp guy and all my antennas are made with pretty small toroids. Now that I have this amplifier I needed a portable antenna that could handle a little more power. I found this 3D print on thingiverse.com

I had the parts so I made a linked end fed half wave with a 49:1 using DX engineering 26 AWG PE coated antenna wire.

It came out nearly perfect.
