Excellent Time Owned: more than 12 months.
At only 12m long this amazing antenna fits easily into my small UK garden, I've been using an Inv-L for 5 years and decided to give the G-Whip 421 a try. It has constantly out performe my L by at least 2 S-points.
Although it is resonant on 40,20 and 10m it will, with a tuner work on all bands with the exception of topband.
I have had this ant running with my WSPR at 200mw when not using with spots from over 7000 km away and I am constantly amazed by its performance.
Andrew from GWhips is a very nice guy to chat with and can accommodate most needs. (He made mine for the CW section of the bands)
The Analyzer shows a low SWR on the freqs its resonant for when mounted as suggested.
A fantastic antenna and highly recommended.

Does what it says on the tin ! Time Owned: 0 to 3 months.
I put the antenna up in 45 minutes.. and was working stations on all bands within the hour with great reports.

It was a perfect match on all three bands without any adjustment.

The antenna in made to the highest quality using stainless steel components and high grade Kevlar coated wire for durability.

I'm so impressed I have purchased another one for use at our holiday home.

Highly Recommended !!!

Shortened EFHW for 40/20/10 Time Owned: 3 to 6 months.
This replaced a random wire +unun. The results have been excellent. I have a small garden and the 40/20/10 is mount on bamboo poles 12 ft above found in a dog-leg 100 degree angle. Results communication in /europe up to about 800 miles is frequent and easy. at night I can have digital QSO’s across the atlantic 3000 miles + on 40 and 20m with 15W. Using an antenna tuner it has worked well on 30m and 17m .
Easy to erect and well made with green kevlar covering for the antenna wire to keep a low profile.

Excellent little antenna for smaller gardens Time Owned: 0 to 3 months.
Bought this as my first HF antenna.

I have a small garden, so needed something compact and discrete. This is exactly that.

At around 10m long, this antenna will work on 10, 20m and 40m with an SWR of 1 using an ATU.

Currently have it sitting horizontal about 10' off the ground and it's ok, but could do with being a bit more sloped like in the instructions. So that is my next thing to do.

But getting great signals from across the globe, and managing to get my signal out to Europe.
