I’ve got about $60 invested in my center fed zepp wire antenna under my roof shingles and it works great from 40 to 6 meters through a LDG Auto Tuner. I will stick with it and save many $$’s

This reminds me of Don's (W1EJM) presentation of his Vari-Vert antenna design back in Feb. 2017. The presentation is on the K4VRC website.

$2879.00 including the 30 and 40M coil. 

And then you have to add a radial field. 

And then they're about to raise the price ❓!!!

Hopefully you get fries and a big cookie 

with that package deal.

This thing is way too expensive.  My bet is on a new or used 6BTV inside PVC pipe for a flagpole.  The StealthIR is not going to have gain anywhere near the price they are asking for.

Also, the add-on 30/40M coil (KW rated) is an additional $540.  The 30/40/80M add-on coil is $693.  The 80M coil is also power limited, I believe 300 watts.
