Hi everyone,
Like many hams, I live in a HOA restricted subdivision, so a
permanent HF antenna is not practical. I have been thinking for a while
about EFHW as a temporary antenna which I can set up and take down quickly.
My question has probably been asked many times so please forgive this
relatively new member for asking again. The question is do you use an EFHW
antenna and is it a good solution for HOA limited subdivisions?
ARRL sells EFHW antenna kit for $80. It is cheap and certainly seems like it
will be fun to build. It works up to 40m, but I suppose it will be possible
to extend it to 80m with a loading coil. I am considering MFJ-1910 33-ft
telescoping fiberglass mast with the antenna. As I like more choices, can
anyone suggest other options/alternatives for the mast?
Also, any suggestions for a good and reasonably priced (< $400) antenna
analyzer?
Thanks,
Amal - KT5AC
