Great for restricted space situations. This is fully compatable with all radios from the tube type of the 1920's to todays CPU 2014 solid state radios and FLEX-5000 Software Defined Radios as stated from a happy customer. Marine Radios as well, No ground radials required as it has an Internal built in Current path! Note: This may not out perform a Full Sized 1/4 or 1/2 wave perfectly tuned mono-band vertical tuned at that band with a good ground radial system. This antenna is about convenience and ease of use and will perform very well with good all band broad band matching without a tuner or ground radials. As with all verticals, this one will also work better with a good ground system for added performance.The design of this antenna has an Excellent Signal to noise ratio and greatly reduces man made and terrestrial electrical interference so you can hear the weak signals where you could not before.

One may ask, how does this antenna handle ICE STORMS & WIND? Here is a letter from a customer and this is what he has to say about that. So I tagged on this old one. Well I wanted to tell you about some of mother natures wrath. Your Antenna has survived, with no apparent damage, 1, 65 mph straight line wind; 1, 75 mph gust front; and a 2 inch ice storm that reeked havoc on my trees.
I will attempt to add some pics of the ice storm. You can blow it up and note your antenna, a 6m Ham stick putting up a good fight. But the 2m antenna was pulled apart (antenna on the right). I figured maybe all this could be a product endorsement. The item "All Band multiband HF Vertical antenna Ham Radio Amateur US Patented" is in sale since Wednesday, March 02, 2016.
