Chameleon Tactical Delta Loop 80M - 6M HF Antenna 

We're investing a lot of time in design, engineering and products testing! We're about to release few NEW products in the coming weeks!

I have had the same low noise floor results with the CHA-TDL system.

If you look at the s-mater, the signal peaks are about 10dB down on the EFHW, so it’s not just the noise floor that’s lower, itself everything.

We probably sold several THOUSANDS of SS17 - never heard of that issue before! If a section collapse by itself - normally when something like that is happening, the unit has been forced and/or damaged a way or another because we're inspecting ALL whips before shipping!

125B.. I have a video coming very soon on how I built the interface to auto change bands. :)

@@TechMindsOfficial nice, looking forward to see your upcoming videos. Keep up the good work 👍

Yes - you can get the transformer individually if needed! In that video they used a CHA HYBRID-MINI but you could get the CHA HYBRID-MICRO which is about 50% lighter and smaller.

The micro unit is a 5:1 transformer

He never reads or replies to comments waisting your time trying to get one.

@backpackingonline It was very windy while it was up and it did obviously bend, but that's natural considering each element is 17 feet. They are very sturdy though and went straight when the winds stopped.

@davesmith5335 Who you talking about? Doofus. :-)

Hi, yes, I said in the video that it was close to the SWR plot that I showed from the manual. Thanks

Ah! ok ... I really didn't get it Many thanks / 73 @@TechMindsOfficial

SDR Console V3. It's a free download from www.sdr-radio.com/console

Made an EZNEC model of the loop. Raised the base 18ft from the ground. Swapped the lossy 5:1 transformer for a low-loss 4:1 transformer. Result was a high gain, bidirectional 17M resonant delta loop.

Bingo

@@Chameleon_Antenna Ignore that last.. Some people have no clue what the investment cost to bring out a great product. They just cry and whine like a red headed step child. Plz continue to R&D more portable lightweight options for us hams.. I do appreciate your mil discount though. 😃

I made one for $20 and it even had a proper non dummy load matching system, good machining on parts doesn't make a good antenna. These work but that cha250b clone they copied is very inefficient.
