    Hi Randy. Glad you had a good field day. I have a Buddie Hex as my QTH antenna and absolutely love it. Take care. John N6NRO

    I would love one of those. In fact I was on the waiting list. I assisted in assembling a prototype. After seeing this being setup (fourth video of this process, I’m going to have to pass on this amazing antenna. 99% of the time, I’m out in the woods all by myself.

    I am an owner of the BuddiHex with the Mastwerks and the Sport Tube case. It's an excellent performer and adds contacts into the log when our in the field. I can set it up solo in 20 minutes. After a dozen deployments it's still doing a fine job.

    Not big on the original BP, but this looks like the real deal. Thanks for sharing .

    I would set up the mast with guys then drop it then put the hex on and push it up.

    What quadplexor were you using? The antenna looks rather easy to deploy if you have enough hands employed.

      It was. I don’t know. Watch the trailer video. I think there is a shot of it.
