Great performance and ease of set-up Time Owned: more than 12 months.
I previously used a PAR Endfedz 10-20-40 with my QRP radios. I finally bought a full-power radio (FT-710 AESS) and continued to use the antenna until I realized it was supposed to be limited to 25W. (The antenna held up fine with 100W!)

I replaced the 10-20-40 with their 40-10-KW version, which is rated for up to 1KW. Its 64' length made it easy to set up as a sloper in my back yard and I constantly get "Big signal!" and "Great audio!" reports from contacts on 40, 20, 15, and 10-meter bands. The built-in tuner on my FT-710 helps on the 15 meter band and parts of the 10 meter band with no tuning required on the other bands.

It has made it through a northeast NY winter with no problems with ice or snow build up.

Highly recommended!

A great solution for my small lot Time Owned: 3 to 6 months.
After careful measuring, I found that I had the 65' needed for this antenna between the highest point on the house and a sturdy tree in the back yard of my small lot. To support each end, I installed hoisting pulleys using line and blocks from West Marine built for sailboat use. This antenna works as advertised, and is a good choice for my mid-powered (100-400W) CW operations. It is also practically invisible against the trees around my house.
