-- LIMITED SPACE ANTENNA -. Your choice of lengths--- 88 ft. -------- Rated at 250 watts PEP. IMPORTANT NOTE -- We make this same design in several different lengths.

Please see our other antennas on E-Bay to see the other models. NOTE : You may need a wide range outboard tuner to tune some of the bands covered. Maple Leaf Studio Antennas is proud to offer the Maple Leaf Easy-Tenna antenna to our line up of quality antenna products.

Is our latest antenna design developed to meet the needs of amateurs. And experimenters who have limited space to install an antenna.

It is small enough to be easily hidden from view. With the recent improvements in antenna tuners it provides a very good solution to many installation problems. If you are limited on space to hang an antenna, but still want to use all of the HF bands then this antenna is a good choice for you. The Maple Leaf Easy-Tenna is an end fed, multiband, wire antenna that will cover all HF bands. The Easy-Tenna is the perfect antenna for hams living in HOA controlled housing, hams desiring a very stealthy antenna, apartment dwellers, back packers, vacationing, RV antenna, Field Day operations, sail boats, portable operating, back yard installations etc.

It takes only moments to deploy the Easy-Tenna. Pull it up into a tree, hang it off the balcony, hang it in the attic, etc.

And you are on the air and making contacts. Many HF ham bands can be tuned by the tuner in your radio. NOTE: to tune all hf ham bands an external tuner will be required. One of the greatest things about this antenna design is that. No ground connection is required for excellent performance.

I did design a ground connection into the matching device just in case you want to add a ground or counterpoise. This antenna can be hung in many different configurations. It can be hung as a sloper, an inverted L, hung in a straight line, zig-zagged, vertical, horizontal, etc. Simply run your coax to the matching device and connect the antenna wire to the matching device.

Attach the end of the antenna wire to a high support and you are ready to get on the air and make contacts. If you live in an apartment then this antenna will allow you to get on the air with little effort and no one will even know that you are on the air. This antenna can be deployed in a matter of seconds. Total weight is under 1.5 pounds, depending on how long the antenna wire is.

NOTE I make this design in several lengths. The antenna works best if the coax is at least 50 ft.

Any coax length in excess of 50 ft. Will also work just fine. NOTE If you use a counterpoise wire you can use a shorter coaxial cable.

I do recommend using a choke balun or a line isolator to keep rf away from you and your equiptment. I sell good quality, but inexpensive, choke baluns and line isolators on E-Bay if you need one.

The choke balun is E-bay item number 170660393454. The line isolator is E-Bay item number 140964864072. I will include a set of installation instructions with each antenna order.

Installing this antenna design is about as simple as it gets! We make the same design in many other lengths.

For our various versions please see our other E-Bay antenna listings. We will custom make this antenna to any length from 24 ft. If you want a different length then please contact me and I will be happy to make the antenna length to your specifications. I can state for certain is that this design outperformed my expectations. It is a very good antenna and it receives well and transmits equally as well.

We build these antennas ourselves and take pride in our workmanship. The antenna wire is 14 gauge pure stranded copper that is quite flexible. The wire is double insulated and u.

Even though insulated wire is more expensive, we use it because foliage will not detune the SWR on the insulated wire. I believe you will be pleasantly surprised with this antennas performance!! We construct all of our antennas right here in our own shop. That gives us complete control over our quality of our products. Every antenna is fully tested before it leaves our shop.
