Texas, Iowa and New Hampshire on 100 watts!! First on 20 meters.
From the Southeastern United States, an hour south of Atlanta, within 1.5 hours I worked Cuba, I received my order and want to say it works wonderfully!! I'm so happy with it, and have been promoting you company
a FANTASTIC ANTENNA THAT EXCEEDED MY EXPECTATIONS BY A MILE ! I wanted to upload a photo but the layout here does not allow me to do it so I will send the photo to Ron and Ask him to insert it. No doubt… I could have built a half wave endfed myself… after having been a radio ham for over 25 years.

The antenna has now been up a full month and has truly exceeded expectations. I am getting too old to climb too many ladders.)Įvery question I had was answered courteously and quickly. I can state with my hand on my heart that the HyendAntenna company prides both. For me… the best quality possible was crucially important, as well as good customer service. Yes… it is expensive but… please remember mensen (folks) … you get what you pay for. This is my very first Endfed antenna and I am absolutely delighted with it. buy everything in Stainless steel, as I did. especially important if you are going to use a tree as an anchor point. And make sure that your anchor points do not move. Another tip ? DO NOT pull the wire too tight. Ik have 40 meter of wire hanging from the backing plate and the pull loads on it must be significant. I recommend most strongly that if you are buying one of Ron's Antennas, you buy the version where the wire is secured on the backing plate and NOT on the Balun transformer box. (Last storm registered 164 KM p/h wind over the FastNet Lighthouse. I live in the middle of NOWHERE and we are very exposed to wind here. mijn eerste contact ( my first contact on SSB) on this antenna was with SENEGAL !!!! in Africa ! (6W1QL) I do very little SSB HF these days but prefer the digital modes. the antenna is compromised for 20 meters as ideally it should be half wavelength above ground but at its highest point it is only 7 meters and lowest is only 3 meters. all on just 200 Milli watts !!! in the 20 meter band, but also in many many places on the 15 meter band. The Proof ?)Īm running a 200 milliwatt ZACHTEK (Harry Harrison) desktop transmitter in Whisper mode.ĭeze antenna is heard in AUSTRLIA, (VK4CT) ANTARTICA, (DP0VGN) BRAZIL, (PP5ZX) SAN FRANSICO. Ben al meer dan een dikke 50 jaar weg uit Nederland.ĭeze antenna is ongelooflijk. Mijn Nederlands is te roestig om het fatsoenlijk te schrijven. I am sure that I will end up with an 8 band also, in time.īeste Mensen. Nice Job, and please keep up the good work. The antenna is well constructed, and the backing plate makes for easy mounting. I have had no issues of common mode currents and the antenna is very low noise, where I live. On 10W, using all 5 bands! We tried his 10-40M vertical on 10W and did not have the same joy. My neighbor is a General ham and using WSPR and 10w we have been heard in Africa, North America, South America, Hawaii, Alaska and Antarctica. I have made over 100 QSO on 10 meter, all over the east America and Canada, Mexico, and all over South America from Panama to Argentina, running just 20w on FT8. Paired with a Xiegu G90, I have no amplifier, and no tuner required until the middle of the 80M band. SWR is exactly where advertised, on 70 feet of RG-213. Set as a sloper, 40 feet high at feed end to about 15 feet high, north to south. I am moving to HF after 20 years of Tech class, and chose this as my first "not homemade" HF antenna. Die andern Bänder werde ich noch testen- empfangsseitig geht das schon mal gut. Damit kann ich sagen, dass meine Erwartungen nicht enttäuscht wurden. S6-7 und damit mindestens 1 S-Stufe niedriger als beim Dipol. Die Rapporte waren auf 80m durchwegs gut, hier habe ich einen Vergleich zu einem Eigenbau Dipol mit 2 x 19,5m. Ausrichtung war NORD - SÜD in den ersten Versuchen. Der "Strahler geht dann bis auf volle Höhe und dann quer zum 2. Darunter habe ich 4.2m Koax Kabel, mit einer Mantelwellensperre. Ich betreibe die HyEndFed zwischen zwei 12m Kohlefaser Masten. Tuner eine Anpassung erreichen - hierzu fehlen mir aber noch Ergebnisse zu dem Verbindungen. Nach ersten Versuchen stelle ich ein durchwegs vernünftiges SWR fest - was der eingebaute Tuner meines ICOM mühelos runter matchen kann. Fertigung macht einen guten Eindruck, auch wenn ich dem rel. Versuch macht klug - und ich bin NICHT enttäuscht worden. habe lange überlegt, welcher "Draht" sich für den portabel Betrieb (den ich ausschließlich betreibe) bei mir eignet.
