Review on Tune End Half Wave Antenna by Chris Cruz

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Great quality and great results!

This thing and a piece of wire turned my Icom 705 into a POTA car. From the north of Georgia there are contacts from Alaska to South/Central America, as well as very discreetly local ones. Have used it on 6m, 20m, 40, 80m so far and even had a decent match on 2m for the local repeater. No problem, but not recommended. Thanks guys from QRP!

Pros
  • The antenna uses a single-band half-wave line antenna with a 80-10m termination feed. It is designed as a portable wire antenna that can be used simply as an inverted V-shaped, horizontal, tilted or vertical radiator (at higher frequencies). Your feeder is naturally balanced, eliminating the need for a separate feeder. The high-impedance half-wave line is matched to your 50-ohm feed point via a built-in toroidal transformer rated at 10W.
