POTA with a Chameleon CHA 4010 EFHW Antenna 

Just bought one right before I saw your video. Looking forward to throwing it in the pack!

Thats my go to antenna in the field. I have had great results with it.

My favorite antenna!

so all My CHA wire antenna on 40m run 1.5 bare in most conditions. but it never seems to be an issue. the old 40M LEFS runs almost 0 on 20M so I don't complain.

That Antenna looks intersting to me 👀. great Stuff, Jason. Nice Location you picked there. Happy Easter & 73 de Uncle Günter 💯🙋‍♂

Thats pretty nifty!

LOVE the t-shirt, great fun activation. Our new park reference and offline mode going into WRL soon too. Thanks so much for everything Jason, you're the best!!

Aloha Jason, that’s the antenna that I need for my Hurry Up Mast here in Honolulu. I have two of these 33’ steel masts, just need the right antenna for them and I think this could be the one. 🤙🏻 I hope you end up giving some of these away here in the near future. Todd WH6DWF🇺🇸🤙🏻

sweet portable antenna

great antenna . been my go to antenna for portable. but I bult mine. end fed half wave. nice how they have outher option on the winder base . I have had the same SWR issue in some spots . the ground does have a bunch to do with that. using coax as counter poise can change SWR with length and type of soil it is over. even when you use counterpoise wire and a 1:1 at antenna the length of counter poise comes into play on lower frequency bands like 40 meters. what i found buy doing several parks. still some great DX you got. The parks are US now . and Hamer's has a update and fixed the logging soft where. US parks come up and the map fixed. just down load the new version. you may need to un install the old version but keep log's ,what I did. it worked . i use windows 11 with no problems outher than the issue with old Hamer's . Chameleon has some nice antenna's . just when it comes to end fed ,I make my own. I want to go QRO some times and easy to make. lots of kits to build. they fun ! I like that one you used. 73's

I love your PackOut box (just like mine)! Mine has turned into a QDX catch all box. Thanks for a fun video!

Might have to get me one of those end feds, looks like it works great. Hook it up to my Scorpion and see what happens??? Thanks Jason

What did you use for the mast by the porta-potty? It obviously works well, is it collapsible? Thanks!

Blessed love to all, my brother are you in America ??. Am a old school boy, can you help me get a Yeasu FT 757GX, or GX2, am from Jamaica west Indies !!

I’ve been wanting to get into ham radio for over 30 years now but damn everything’s changing with the computer age I’m not sure I could follow it now. I’ve had a radio for the last 25 years to listen to just never took the last leap into getting the license.

Are you concerned about the rf exposure with that setup? I just started using an efhw and wonder about it.

Nice antenna, you look 10 yrs younger, What did you do? Happy Easter Man! Tnx.

Which type of ABR coax are you using on this POTA?

How do you compare this to the PackTenna?

Thanks Jsson, a fun video looks like that antenna gets out good. Was too funny, one of your contacts VA7NX activating park CA-3454 is the president of my radio club up here on the west coast of Canada.

What are you using for a portable mast? I need to get one and am looking for advice. Thanks, 73 KK7PEN

Did Molson hit the "End Stream" button?

If you replace the 65' wire from the CHA LEFS 4010 with a CHA LEFS 8010 EFHW WIRE SET (about 130') + elevate the feedpoint to about 10' to 12' and put a choke at the feedpoint, you'll cover 80M 40M 30M 20M 17M 15M 12M and 10M - No Tuner Needed! 3650 kHz = 1.35 SWR 7100 kHz = 1.05 SWR 14175 kHz = 1.51 SWR 21225 kHz = 1.36 SWR 28850 kHz = 1.71 SWR Elevating the EFHW will always help reducing the SWE and maximizing the performances of the antenna.

$175... these are the antennas that hams are supposed to make themselves, for like 28 dollars. If they would have called it a TACTICAL EFHW, that would bring up the premium a bit, 😆 🤣

Pro-tip, hold the mic off to the side not directly in front of your mouth. You corrected this later in the video.

Out of stock.

The Chameleon company makes very strange products, sells them at a very strange price, and very strange people buy them. They manage to sell a piece of wire at Yagi's price. 😅

We've 7 sad ham! The 7 CS of amateur radio!
