My thoughts on the Horse-fence antenna. Time Owned: more than 12 months.
I have been searching for a real broad-band antenna, since i got my license, and here it is. I finally found it ( The Horse-fence antenna ). On the general portion of the band, on 75-80 meters, it is 1.4 at 3.800 mhz and 1.0 at 3.900 mhz and 1.3 at 4.000 mhz. This 80 meter version is good on 10 meters too. My audio is noticeable higher also. I dont even use a tuner on the general portion of the band, but i use the tuner when i go down to the extra portion of 80 meters. I liked it so much that i bought a 40 meter Horsefence too. The 40 meter is 1.0 across most of the band and 1.2 at each end. My 40 meter is good on 20 meter band(1.3) and 15 meter band (1.3) too without a tuner. Of coarse u can tune them more if you want too, to get the swr down to 1.0. All the other bands you can tune very easy. This is the very best antenna that i have found for HF and i have looked and tried over 25 different kinds of antennas since i got my license in Feb.of 2001. If you want to hear them for yourself, just tune in to 3.976 mhz every morning at 8 am Eastern time and listen for yourself. If you want to look at them or purchase one, just go to kf4bwg.com , you will not be disappointed. Everyone have a great day. I am going back and enjoy mine somemore. Talk to you later on the HF bands.

Works Great Time Owned: 3 to 6 months.
This is the best HF antenna that i have ever used and i have tryed many dipoles before.I have got a 80 meter horse fence antenna up about 40 or 45 feet high and i can work the general band from the top to the bottom without a tuner with no more then a 1.5 SWR anywhere on the band. It works great on all the other bands also which i do use a tuner but on 10 meters i have no more than a 2 SWR on that band which i do touch it up with the tuner.I have talked all over the world with this antenna and got great reports.It is a very broadband antenna and i am going to purchase a 40 meter horse fence antenna very soon.
