This wire
antenna can operate on 4 bands,
no tuner required. It can work without A
tuner on 40, 20, 15 and 10 meters. With A
tuner it will work great on 17, 30 and 12
meters also. I have been told that it
will tune nicely on 6 meters. As with any
antenna, it may need tuned for your location, height, etc.
If you have any type of antenna tuner this is not an issue.
This antenna is made with #10 and #12
insulated wire. The electrical
connections are brass so rust and pitting
are not A problem. All four wires use
terminals with brass wing nuts. The
spreaders are primed and painted
fiberglass.
There are many so called multi
band antennas but, this one
doesn't use any lossy traps or coils. You
will get mono band performance from A
multi band antenna. I have compared this
antenna to the G5RV types and there is no
comparison, stations could be worked on
this antenna that could not even be
heared at all on the G5RV.
