Very good multiband antenna  Time owned: 6 to 12 months
English:
I bought it one year ago and I am very satisfied.
I installed this antenna at the top of eight meter mast placed on the roof of the house, the 1:1,8 VSWR bandwidth is 110 KHz on 40mt, 350 KHz on 20 meter band, 450 KHz on 15 meter band, 1.6 MHz on 10 meter.
It is sold with a balun rated at 1000W pep on 7 MHz, this tube dipole is installed as V shape with an angle of 140 degrees, The front to side ratio is about 10 dB, performance compared to a vertical are considerable, excellent reports on 40mt from all distances, in 10 and 20 meter I worked all continents by 100 W only. The VSWR don't change even with the rain, antenna is quiet and resistant to strong wind. The comparison with a vertical multiband of 7.5 meters long is strongly in favor of the Create 730 also an increase of 4 points S. I paid for this antenna € 300 but there was an optional kit 3 Kwatts balun and traps at € 250.


Italian:
Ho comprato questa antenna un anno fa.
Sono molto soddisfatto.
E' montata su un palo alto otto metri posto sul tetto di casa, la larghezza di banda considerando un ROS 1:1,8 agli estremi è di 110 KHz in 40 metri, 350 KHz in banda 20 metri, 450 KHz in banda 15 metri, 1,6 MHz in banda 10 metri.
Viene venduta con un balun da 1000W pep a 7 MHz , l'ho montata a V con apertura dei bracci di 140 gradi, presenta un rapporto avanti/fianco di circa 10 dB. le prestazioni paragonata ad una verticale sono considerevoli, in 40mt ottimi rapporti da tutte le distanze, in 10 e 20 metri ho collegato tutto i continenti con la sola potenza di 100W. Quando piove non vi sono variazioni di ROS, è silenziosa ed è resistente a fortissime raffiche di vento.
Il paragone con una verticale multibanda di 7,5 metri di lunghezza è nettamente a favore della Create con un incremento anche di 4 punti S.
Ho pagato l’antenna 300 euro ma è disponibile in opzione il kit balun e bobine da 3 Kw a 250 euro.
