EFHW 49:1 antenna setup advice

Post by Jim444444 »

Decided to try out this configuration as it'll fit in my garden and can use a tree branch half way up for support.
The antenna is 124 ft long and covers 80-10m

Has anyone tried a similar configuration also was wondering how high off the ground should the end point of the antenna be.

EFHW is bad and problematic antenna, but still better than no antenna.
Just hang it.
