Our best selling antenna is our 160 meter, ruggedized "half-sloper". We have been building these antennas for over 14 years. They work and work well. Designed for limited spaced applications and ruggedly built for many years of service.
It features heavy, 14 awg insulated wire for both the coil and the radiator, a built-in SO239 connector and a solid protective cover over the coil. Ideal for 100-200 watt radios, this antenna solves the problems of working "top-band" and eliminates the need for a tuner. Trimmed to resonance at your favorite spot in the band this antenna offers omni-directional performance with minimum effort. Get yours on the way!

Omni-directional
More immune to static than other
antennas
We start with a tightly wound 14 awg insulated wire coil
This is the finished antenna, ready to be hung on your tower.
The radiator wire will be left several feet long to allow you to "prune" it to the length that tunes it to the exact spot in the band that you need. Once tuned near the center of the band at your location the antenna will usually cover the entire band without any retuning or tinkering. Note: this antenna can withstand quite a bit of power but we have NOT tested it above 200 watts. We don't build "high-power" antennas. We build antennas that give you that extra performance.
This antenna ships 75' in length and will be trimmed back to 68' or so on installation. It works best when attached to your tower at about the 45-50' level. This allows the radiator wire to be angled down toward the ground at a comfortable angle (somewhere near 45 degrees) and to be attached to a suitable support 9 or 10 feet off the ground ( to keep someone from touching it while you are transmitting) 50' or so away from your tower. We have one of these that has been operating untouched on our tower since 1996 with no problems. This antenna is durable!
