Fantastic antenna 10+ years 
|
Time owned: more than 12 months
|
I've had this antenna since 1999. It's withstood the cold windy winter in Newport, RI as well as many winters in New Jersey. I've seen the antenna bend quite a bit and it has never cracked or broken. I used it on CB before techs were allowed on 10m and now I use it on 10m. It works great without any tuning required. I only talk 28.3 - 28.5, but the SWR is fantastic. It has no problem handling the 100w from my FT-857D.
As a 5/8 antenna for 10m, it outperforms any other 10m vertical. I've got mine mounted about 7 feet about the crest of my roof and I talk 40 - 50 miles ground wave.
