Analysis at the antenna when properly deployed on the tripod with Vertical, NVIS, & Grounded Counterpoise elements without a tuner. An external antenna tuner can be used if the antenna systems is deployed over a poor ground or not placed in a clear area.
Deployment
More Information
Never Remove or Loosen any of the Bolts, Washers, Nuts, or Caps on the Alpha Match.
Touch free operations: The system enables you to switch bands or change frequencies without having to change switches, jumpers, or coils as it is an off-center fed dipole type vertical that is pre-tuned when deployed over real ground. Making this antenna especially useful if you have a disability such as being mobility or sight impaired.
Options
NVIS for EMCOMM: The optional 60 foot NVIS element activates your HF MIL 2.0 antenna for NVIS, which is needed for EmComm. You will not need a tuner when this element is installed, however, you may still use one if the antenna is installed over a poor ground or not placed in a clear area to achieve a lower SWR.

As advertised! First trip out and the FMJ did a great job.
Easy set up. Good enough to use for my base until I get my long wire up. For now-it lives with my Go-Box
Bought several of these to give to Ham Radio Club Members for Christmas. Everyone looks forward to using them for POTA Activations ASAP. Excellent service with and an excellent product. Owner of Alpha is a First Class businessman with First Class Support!
I purchased the Mil. Antenna 2.0 for use in the field, travel and field days. I got it on sale so good buy. Set it up this wkend on a tripod in 5 minutes. Using a tuner compared it to my random wire, the alpha performed very well using the supplied ground & counterpoise. My wire is over 100 ft. and takes time to set up, the alpha sets up fast. Reception was slightly less than my wire in side by side, a trade I’m willing to accept for the convenience. Made phone contacts on 17, 20, 40 and 80 meters. All signal reports were 5×5 to 5×9. All in all I found the antenna worked well, easy to setup, tuned easily and comes down in a snap & all fits inside the handy carry bag. Happy with this purchase.
