I've been VERY pleased with my OCF dipole from Buckmaster. 6-80 no tuner needed. Handles my L4B and Commander HF-2500 at full tilt.Simple antenna, pleasing to the neighbor's eye. Super simple set up. Had the Radio Works Carolina Windom. Worked good until I blew the line isolator. Joe

Would really like Drake users recommendations, opinions, comments for a all band (160 through 10 meter) Antenna i.e. low VSWR, broad band, house and neighborhood friendly, and be able to take output from a TX4 LB4 MN2000 set up. Previous experience has been: not much luck with verticals However it could have been my fault as I never had more than 8 radials, and no attention to decent grounding. A Recent excellent antenna presentation at the Rochester Radio club talked only on Verticals this was due to their low angle of radiation. Several verticals were mentioned specially the AV-18HT, However no had one. I know this isn't an antenna net but it's the only net I use and Drake folks on this net seem to be very knowledgeable.
