This antenna is excellent. It is easy to assemble and mount and is very light. I have it mounted to a directv dish mount on the eve of my house, a storm came through with 50+ winds and it is still there.

I am using it with an HT and really getting out. The recieve is also excellent. I am comunicating QRP up to 200 miles and upto 400 during temp inversions on 0.3-1.0 watt.

Great antenna, great price Time Owned: 3 to 6 months.
I'm a new ham with zero experience. I live in a bowl with a relatively hight ridge completely surrounding me. Given that, I was still able to easly assemble and mount this antenna and can easily access repeaters 20-50 miles away (at 5 watts). As a beginner I've found this to be an excellent first antenna and the ebay vendor I purchased from (W0PM) was not only helpful with the purchase but with information that helped me pass my test as well. I'm totally satisfied with both the antenna and the dealer and would buy this antenna again should I ever need another one.
