Best Portable 2m Ham Band Antenna?
I am ham radio operator and i want to use my radio when i go to trekking-camping and when i am traveling. I want to use this antenna on the boat too. I need a portable-flexible omnidirectional VHF band or dual band antenna schematics. It should be flexible to put it in a backpack. It should not require ground plane because i cannot find metal places at the top of hills.
I made the coax cable antenna, link is here:

Unfortunately, swr values are too bad and i cannot fix it.
Thanx.
For 2m portable work, you can get reasonable results with a 1/4 wave whip and a series of ground radials. The ground radials, and even the whip for that matter, can be made from appropriate lengths of 12 AWG copper wire. The wires are flexible, and so the whole thing can be packed away and then carefully unpacked and straightened out before use. A good example of this sort of antenna, including a nice drawing and calculator for elements lengths is here:
http://www.hamuniverse.com/2metergp.html
I've built several antennas like this over the years with fine results - 2m, 70cm, and FM broadcast bands
Otherwise, consider bringing a ground plane with you - a layer of foil or metal mesh placed atop the ground works well in conjunction with commercially made "rubber duck" flexible whip antennas.
