I suggest you obtain a copy of the study published by K7LXC comparing
several commercial vertical antennas on 80 thru 10.  I found it very useful
and it is inexpensive.  One of the antennas in the study is a Butternut -
HF6V I believe.  The URL is

Subject: [Antennas] Butternut HF2V

As winter is approaching and the solar cycle is starting downward, I have
been considering buying a Butternut HF2V. I am looking for an antenna to
work some DX on 40 and 80 meters. I have a Force 12 C-3SS and it works great
for 10-20 but I am now looking for a good inexpensive antenna for 40 and
75-80 I have an inverted L on 160 and it seems to work pretty well. Anyhow
that is why I have been considering the HF2V. I need to know the minimum
radial requirement for this antenna as well as anything else required to
make it perform at optimum performance. My lot here is about 80 feet X 200
feet. If you have any experience wit this antenna give me your reports.
