Working great			Time Owned: 3 to 6 months.
Bought this used and put it up at 55', 3 feet above a 17m 3 el yagi, for my father N6EED. It's flat across the band and working DX. Easy installation.

Suprising performance			Time Owned: 3 to 6 months.
I guess what I used to read about a dipole out of the trees performing better was true considering this one is not even 46 feet long. It is at 45 feet high between my EF140S and XR-5. I work whatever I want on the first try. Obviously 30m is 200w CW only. Now if there was more to work on 30 ! Using WWV on 10 MHz or a DX station as a reference, there is about a 5 db difference when the antenna is offset 45 degrees from the short path, and when you turn the ends toward the station, there is a 20 db drop in signal. A little directivity for low windload and low price.
