A loading coil and an effective radiator is used for 80 meters -- 1.5 kW PEP. For best performance, the 18AVQII should be ground-mounted, clear of buildings and other structures. When the antenna is ground-mounted, a radial system is sometimes not needed. In most areas, where soil surface conductivity is poor and a good ground plane is not possible, lay out ground radials to improve the efficiency of your antenna. Bands: 10, 15, 20, 40, 80 meters.
