Maco103 3 element is small and works really good and can turn it with small TV anttenna rotor.

Try looking into a small Y Quad or a simple two element quad beam. Quads for 11 meters are both lightweight and have more gain than traditional quads of the same size.

CJ,
Hornet168ky nailed it. You cant go wrong with either of these two great but small antenna's. I love my Maco 103C's they are lightweight, easy to asemble and cheap (as in low cost). Happy New Year and DX'ing in 2004...
