Bought one, strung it up today, it's working very well this evening on all but 160 (which it's neither electrically designed for, nor elevated enough for). It tunes down to less than 1.3:1 on all bands (160-6) with the internal tuner in my FT-991A. It's ruggedized (dipped in hot rubber), built well, lightweight, feels like it will hold up well, I've mounted it permanently in the gable. Time will tell. $130 with free shipping, great ratings from others as well. I feel this is a good find to pass on to my fellow nerds.
