Best portable HF antenna money can buy.

First contact was to a maritime mobile in the Indian Ocean on their way to the Cocoa Island DX Expedition on 12 meters SSB with TI9/3Z9DX/MM.

I purchased the Alpha HF-Military antenna at the Orlando hamfest this past year after speaking to Steve from Alpha for almost an hour. I soon set it up on a tripod, on my driveway, with a SGC-237 antenna tuner mounted below it. Report from the maritime mobile station was 5×9 both ways using an Icom-706 mk2g in my go kit. 9000 plus miles for that QSO just blew me away. I also purchased their mobile (6-40M MOTO) version of the same antenna and it works equally well using an SGC-239 auto tuner and a Icom 706 mk2g.

There isn’t a better antenna for both portable and mobile use that I have found. I have recommended these antennas and so far 4 other members our the VBARC radio club have purchased these antennas.
