Mike:
I just installed a MyAntenna EFHW 40-10-2K wire antenna. I chose
the 40 to 10 model as I do not use 160 or 80 meters. It is hung in an
inverted V configuration: the center at 30' and ends at about 10' from
the ground. The total length was about 63' and the final SWR was less
than 1.5:1 on the the phone bands except for 10 meters where it was
2:1. The modeI got was designed for 1.5 KW peak and seems to be
of excellent construction. There is a 7:1 UNUN included in the package
but I did not examined it. I would be glad to discuss any other details.

An end fed antenna is the best fit for my property. I can easily run
the 71 foot model as either an inverted L sloper or as a regular
sloper. The highest point will be 18-20 feet and the low point will be
around 6-7 feet.
I have a few questions about this antenna as well making a DIY 20
meter delta loop. If anyone is willing to give me a few minutes of
your time to pick your brain off this thread that would be much
appreciated.
