After more than 5 years using this antenna on different occasions such as
H44SHD Solomon Island
P29AH, Papua New Guinea
8Q7RM, Maledives
A255AH, Botswana
ZS1/HB9SHD, South Africa
I can tell this antenna works well, fast installation between trees or only one tree as vertical, L or horizontal. together wit a FT-891 in cw, ssb and FT8.
There are other antennas, but with such a lightweight no pole needed nor radials.
(Don't tell Ron I was using this antenna with 50W in FT8, and still works well)
just in case I have a 2nd one and several wires in case I lost one.
Many Thanks Ron for this antenna

To mount antenna s high as possible I use a golf ball and kite string

Hervorragende Verarbeitung! Alle Bänder liegen sehr über das Ganze Band innerhalb der Tolleranzen mit Top VSWR Werten. Einfach aufhängen, anschliessen, CQ rufen. Einfacher geht's nicht. :-)

good on 5 watts also. Perfect for travel. Never fails to make DX if set to appropriate height.
I hope you put back into production.

Ich nutze die für meine Station im Garten. Die Antenne ist einfach auf- und abzubauen und zum sehr gut verarbeitet. Der Ring zum aufwickeln und der Balun passt in die Hosentasche.
Die ideale Antenne für Unterwegs!

2nd review, Brought this Antenna to Germany and forgot my rope so just threw the antenna up between 2 trees , the Antenna was lying across branches and it was up about 20 feet to 10 at the low end and made some contacts in not so good conditions a few days ago.
From Germany I got to EW1MM in Belarus with 5 watts QRP using the Xiegu X5105, and made contact with OX0MJ in Copenhagen , Denmark and IZ6WSJ in Italy all with 5 Watts from Germany while visiting from Ireland.
The Antenna is incredibly portable and light.

Very impressed with the build quality.
I took it along while visiting my Mothers with the Kids and strung it up between 2 trees, highest end about 30 feet lowest maybe 15, working in the garden and first time I made contact with AN1WHS on 21.245 Mhz ,1,165 Kms away with my Xiegy X5105 5 watt QRP rig so this Antenna works for sure, very impressed and yes it works perfectly well without radials !
And thanks for the very fast delivery to Ireland !

Use this for SOTA activations. Small, light. robust, and works. Can't really ask for more.

This is a super antenna. Perfect vswr on all supported bands. As a hack, Add your own 62 foot wire to a bnc/banana jack adapter to take the coil out of the circuit and you can use it on 80 meters with your radio’s tuner.
