If the 80 meter band is an important band for you to transmit on, it
is possible to order a modified transformer so that this band has a
better SWR.
Because the antenna is broadband, this adjustment does give a degraded SWR at 10M (typical 1:2.5).
When ordering, choose the option, standard transformer or optimized
transformer for 80M.
These VSWR measurements were taken in the open field at a height of 10 meters horizontally.
We use 4.5 meter of coax to a line isolator.
From the line isolator to the analyzer we used 10 meters of coax Ecoflex 10
The antenna network box was positioned 10 meter above the ground.
The length of the antenna wire to the matching network is 40 meters and connected to an 10 meter mast.
The antenna was not grounded.
Used VSWR meter : RigExpert AA-600

Amazed!
works wery well and swr are just as promised.
My antenna is mounted 10 meters above ground and goes to a 10m pole in the back garten.
The installation is close to ideal.

Sie hängt in 10 m Höhe und ist platzbedingt als "L" aufgespannt - was sich nur im 10 Meterband durch leicht erhöhtes SWR bemerkbar macht. Hatte schon viele schöne QSOs auch DX damit. Bekomme immer wieder sagenhafte S Werte übermittelt! Die Antenne ist ideal für Platzgeschädigte.

SWR auf 80m Hervorragend die Qualität der Verarbeitung ist 1A, die übrigen Bänder sind genau so ohne Tuner zu nutzen. Selbst 160m funktioniert noch mit dem Internen Tuner vom TS-2000
Die Rapporte sind 5/9 aus I , HB9 ,OE und EA auf 80m/10m. Also wer eine Drahtantenne sucht die Unauffällig und Leistungsstark ist sollte sich auch für eine HyEndFed entscheiden.
Der Versand ist absolut Unproblematisch und man wird am immer Informiert wo sich die Sendung gerade befindet. Verpackung ist mehr als gut so ist garantiert das die Antenne sicher den OM erreicht und das innerhalb weniger Tage.
I received my order and want to say it works wonderfully!! I'm so happy with it, and have been promoting you company
to many hams I talk to. From the Southeastern United States, an hour south of Atlanta, within 1.5 hours I worked Cuba,
Texas, Iowa and New Hampshire on 100 watts!! First on 20 meters.... and in the evening on 80 meters I worked even more.
I now have an Ameritron AL-572 linear and am running what seems to be about 700 watts, and the situation is:
If I can hear a station, I can work it!! Last night I worked the east coast of Maine (1276) miles on 80M and he
said I was 5/9. EVERYONE is shocked to hear I am talking to them on an end-fed wire!! EVERYONE comments very
positively on my strength and sound. My transceiver is just a basic ICOM 718, so nothing fancy there.
I also comment to people on how it seems to be built to "European MIL-SPEC standards, not the
"plastic fantastic" junk that is in many American Ham radio outlets.
After I use it a few more weeks for more experience, I will do a review on eham review and give it a 5/5.
