    This document provides instructions for building a top-loaded 80m vertical antenna that is 12m tall using a Spiderbeam telescoping pole. The antenna consists of a single radiator wire spiraled down the pole with additional turns near the bottom to connect to the feedpoint, and 8-20 radial wires fanning out from the base for counterpoise. It uses guy ropes to secure the pole and prevent swaying in the wind.
