  • I thought I had lost this footage I shot during COVID but found it today and figured I'd do some voice over and show this antenna I purchased to test. Hex Beams are used quite often in the ham radio world but you don't see them used in the CB band as often. It is compact, easy to put together, and is very lightweight. www.radiowavz.com/product/sen...

    So cool with ease of everything. And apparently no matching network

      The antenna radiator is approximately 1/2 wavelength long for frequency being used.
      Probably best to use a balun at the feed point.
      Otherwise the RF pattern of the hex will be distorted.

    I'd pay $250 if it came with two antennas and stacking hardware .
