They really don't recommend any antenna less than 4 ft for the 11 meter band. They're just not as efficient or very broad banded from what I understand.

Efficiency is inversely proportional to length relative to a 102" whip. 3' is pretty much the minimum size. 4' should be better, 5' better still, etc., but sometimes situations dictate the shorter lengths for physical reasons. Everything is a trade-off.

Okay, I hadn't thought about it being proportional to a 102 " whip.
I've just always heard or read that 4 ft was a minimum length. Can't tell you why off the top of my head. I do agree with the last part of your statement. I've got a 3 ft antenna on the left front of my pickups left fender, only because I didn't want the whip to damage my garage door when I pulled in at night. I've always tried to use longer antennas when I can.bored silly Thanks this. -
