Hi Dennis, A few months ago the Youtube video you mention made the rounds of the Perseus Yahoogroup and a couple others I belong to. I correspond occasionally with David Hamilton, the DXer who came up with the Slinky Flag. He continues to do very with with TA DX using this antenna, which looks admittedly sloppy and close to interfering house wiring, etc. It sure works well for him! I bought some Slinkys with the idea of trying them here sometime on the structure that currently supports my rotating ALA100.
