I have a vertical that’s in great shape. It’s a “radialess” version but I strapped a couple on it and was able to get less than 1.8-1 swr 80-6m.  After extensive testing and cutting a ton of wire, I learned that mounted on the ground (not in the air like the manual states) a few radials make this thing a pretty good dx antenna on 40-10. 80 isn’t the greatest but it still works.  It’s a compromise vertical that’s great for portable/rv use.  

Only selling it because I have ordered a new gap antenna titan dx vertical and it’s going to be permanently installed in this one’s place.

Make an offer if interested. I can deliver.  


Regards,
Johnathan Ibert
