"Drag a wire behind you like they tow banners."

If it were as simple as you suggest then I think a few of us would be doing it. 
Picking up banners with an aircraft in flight is a skill that most pilots don't 
have. It would be far better to use a retractable antenna. However, a legal 
installation of any sort of antenna extension/retraction mechanism on an 
aircraft with a standard airworthiness cert would be a significant challenge.


(No banner experience but I do have lots of time towing gliders and flying 
jumpers)
