    Replacement for 20-year-old WF7G.

    Posted by Danny Edward Coffey on 30th Jun 2024

    This antenna is to replace one I have had for years, A strong storm in April this year knocked a large oak limb on my old finally tearing it apart. The other one had survived ice and windstorms but was finally done in. I wanted another and hope to get another 20years from this one, I think it is one of the best for compromise mounting like I use. I hope I can always purchase these antennas I feel they are excellent. KM5LB

    I had to have one at my summer and winter QTH's

    Posted by Ralph Hicks on 15th Apr 2022

    Shipping of the 80-10 ladder line fed dipole antenna was fast and I found the antenna to be well made. We mounted it between two tall trees with a pulley and rope on one end so it could be lowered in the winter when we were away. The performance was much improved over the vertical we had been using. This was a perfect antenna for a remote location on a Maine lake. I also purchased a second antenna for my home QTH.

    Can't Build It Cheaper

    Posted by Eric Fitzgerald on 6th Aug 2021

    Having made my own 400Ω ladder line doublets before, I can say not only can you not build it any cheaper, this product is better that what I assembled. I wanted to get this before Field Day and they made sure it was in my hands with plenty of time to spare. Great product and great people. Highly recommended.

    Great product, great service!!

    Posted by David Poinsett, NU8A on 26th Jul 2021

    I cut this to 86 ft for use as an extended double Zepp on 20m and a slightly longer dipole on 40m. It's up at 40 ft between two trees. This thing has been through some extreme storms in summer and winter over the past 14 months and has held up fine. Very impressed with the clever design, and happy that the purchase supports a good cause. Works great, too! Very highly recommended.

    I have purchased 160 meter and 80 meter dipoles with ladder line, of course. Never had an issue with high winds or ice load.

    Should have started with this one.

    Posted by Ray KG7AV on 27th Mar 2021

    I'm one of those that started with the Cobra Ultralite Sr. It's a good antenna, but no matter now much I played with 450 feedline length, I kept having to deal with band tradeoffs. Switched to the 80-10 with 50' feedline. Center is 45' AGL inverted vee, ends at 25' AGL. Straight out of the box. Feeds into an LDG 4:1 balun, and 6' RG-8X from bulkhead to radio. Boom. LDG IT-100 tuner, 80-10 all bands load up great.

    6 months now absolutely perfect

    Posted by Brian W2VOA on 31st Jan 2021

    This antenna is so quiet I love it !! Tunes up great using my Palstar AT1KP tuner just after a 1:1 current balun, once tuned it is rock solid no more tuning required until I move to a far frequency. Getting very nice signal reports . Construction is very good !!

    well built.

    Posted by James on 29th Oct 2020

    Shipping was prompt. Antenna was exactly as described. I need to do a bit of trimming. But, other than that, it works well with my TenTec 239b tuner. ( and a 1:1 balun) James W. WD5GWY
