As described. Works well. Good value.
As described. Works well. Good value. I did open the case and super glued the toroid to the case as their hot glue did not stick.

A decent and simple antenna
So in reading the reviews I see there is a lot of people who just don't understand how things work. For example the "dead short" mentioned is because there is an unbalanced-to-unbalanced (unun) transformer in the box, at DC voltages it is a short. It is also not going to be the kind of antenna that will work without a tuner as it is just a long wire with the UnUn to connect the coax to. I had to hot glue the toroid transformer in the box as it had come lose and I did not want it ratting around. It is best if you can get the wire up high. The side opposite the wire needs to connect to a solid ground rod, a counter-poise wire, or both. This design is simple and has been around for a very-very long time so it can and will work if you set things up right. (If an "Extra Class" cannot figure it out, oh well)

So far so good.
So far this antenna is working well for me. I live in a tough area with a lot of bad RF coming from the weed grow house's near my QTH but it's working well for me. Finally been able to make DX contacts. Good value and the HOA doesn't even notice it.

Great Bang for Your Buck
Works great on 80meters and up. Can't tune 160 though. A tuner is a must have. But works great so far. Made contacts all over the USA.

Good with some modifications
Advertises being 128 feet long. It is 132 feet long. I ran a counterpoise to a salt water creek behind our house. With that, I can tune 10 meters to 160 meters with what I have. The keychain rings on the case are lightweight and useless. Associated photo shows mounting on mast

Work as it should
Easy up highest SWR on 80-10 meter is 1.5 very well built Wb8zpb

Poor workmanship.
Everything in the box was flopping around because they used hot glue, and it didn't stick to the box. That lead to a broken wire. Thankfully, I opened the box to secure it and found the broken wire at the antenna attachment screw - a tiny screw which was installed so that it allowed the screw to turn when the tiny wing nut was tightened. Very disappointed.

Worked until it didn’t.
Received my antenna promptly. Mostly easy to install however while stringing it up the small blue crimp connector on the wire where it connects to the box broke loose twice. A small bead of solder helped fix that. The two small white wire ties on the opposite end of the antenna at the insulator slipped off during a snow storm and I found my antenna on the ground. After fixing those two issues the antenna worked very well. After about two weeks I noticed odd SWR readings on most of the advertised bands. After putting it on analyzing equipment we found that everything seemed ok but it was still not tuning well on most bands. All evidence pointed to the antenna not being the right length. However no modifications were made to length and it was strung perfectly horizontal. Good to get started I’d say but I’m definitely weary of buying another one.
