[Elecraft] Anyone using a DESpole?

[Barry LaZar]

Vic,
      Look at the H Pole antenna. I just built one and am holding it up 
by a single halyard in a tree in my yard. It appears to work pretty well 
and should fit almost any yard/garden. Here is the site: 
http://www.qsl.net/hb9mtn/hb9mtn_h-pole.html.

The only thing that I have found critical is the length of the feed 
line. As I use an SGC-230 tuner, I felt that I could use a much shorter 
feed than the author. I can tune the antenna, bit it does challenge the 
tuner. I'm using the center feed rather than off center feed.

73,
