Just a reminder, folks.
An End-Fed Half-Wave is a 1/2 wave antenna on the frequency of operation.
If it's not a half-wave, then it's a non-resonant wire.
Elecraft tuners do a great job tuning non-resonant wires.
They won't tune an End-Fed Half-Wave without some help, like a 9:1 un-un.
So, when someone says "EFHW" and then says "I just use an adapter and
binding posts" we know it isn't an EFHW.
Terminology matters.
