I have been using the Tennadyne T-11 for just over a year. I have completed the LOTW Triple Play (#220), and DXCC using the T-11. I have A/B'd the antenna against several other antennas with similar specs and it has alway stacked up very well. Having six meters support on the same coax as 20 thru 10 meters is great.
The antenna is very well made and the design shaves several pounds off the total weight of this antenna. The strength of the antenna has not be been compromised by the weight reduction. A 20 to 30 weight reduction is a major benefit at installation time. the higher you place the antenna the greater benefit you receive from the weight reduction. I also has a very favorable wind load for an antenna its specs.
Assembling the antenna is a bit challenging but is not difficult. Just read the manual and study the pictures. When you understand how the antenna was designed, assembly is rather simple. The assembly is not a one day job, it could be done in a day but it, is better to take your time.
The antenna is currently being used behind a 500 watt solid state amp without a tuner. This represents another significant benefit.
Well made, works as described by the manufacturer and is easier to install than an equivalent Yagi design. Can I give it a 6 (Six).
Would I buy another one? I already have. Two of my friends have also bought Tennadyne log periodic antennas after seeing the T-11 up close and seeing how it performs
