The Reel Portable EFHW Antenna. Coming Soon. The Reel Antenna is a unique and versatile, portable EFHW antenna. Pull your line out, hang up, and get on the air. Want to fine-tune a specific band? It's not a problem with the Reel Portable EFHW Antenna, just a wind or two, and you're done. When you're finished, just reel it in and go.
As you can imagine, these are built by hand. So availability will be up and down as we try to streamline our process. First, let me say this isn't the same as a spool with wire on it. This is a complete antenna with a 49:1 balun with an integrated active connection to the wire on the spool. As you can imagine, this is the neat trick that makes it really shine. We have tried many different revisions, wire types, and sizes to get to this point. A lot of trial and error has went in to the building of this antenna. Yes, at the end of the day, it's just an EFHW antenna. The difference is in convenience and small form factor, quick easy deployment, and ability to fine tune your antenna. As most of you probably know, EFHW works on harmonics of a given band, say 40 meters in this case. The first second and third harmonics greatly depend on where the base frequency is tuned. With most traditional EFHW antennas, this is fixed. With this antenna, you can fine tune this to your needs.
Alright, some specifics on the antenna:
Wire size is 20 guage ultra flexible silicone wire, approximately 65-67'.
Uses a 49:1 unun transformer.
Power is rated for 100 watts SSB, 30 watts FT8, etc
Covers 40, 20, 15, 10 meters without the need for a tuner.
