 This antenna works very well on four HF bands such 80m, 40m, 20m and 10m.

This is the completely assemled and tested HF antenna.

There is the rigit strong waterproof 1:4 Balun with SO-239 female connector you would connect any lenght of 50 ohm cable to. Both sides of the balun go out a couple of very strong special antenna insulated copper wires with a few steel threads inside the insulation. The ceramic egg insulators set on the ends of the wires.

Technical data:

 Bands of operation - 80m / 40m / 20m / 10m
 SWR - 1:1 to 1:1.5 (depending of freq and height of the antenna at ground)
 TX Power - 800 W CW, 1000 W SSB
 Size of the balun - 17 cm x 8 cm
 Length - 41.7 m
 Weight - 1.0 kg

And of course than high above the ground your antenna is placed then better it works.
