Nice video. Just to confirm that efhw do not NEED an earth rod or similar. Just a counterpoise a length of 1/20th of the lowest band is fine or that same length of coax from the transformer before a common mode choke. 73
Hi Tim, yes, I have an RF choke. The antenna is the shortened version, about 23 meters. Seems to work very well indeed, just wish I bought one sooner. The only band I don't have is 17m, but I build one today. My next project is putting the hustler back up. Will have to look around for wire on the internet, as the hustler likes lots of radials. 73
