    You have a very nice location and antenna farm . Great job on building that antenna , you did a very professional job putting it together . It looks like it should work very well on 40-160 meters .

    I brought the same HF3B, the worse one I had. It’s impossible to use it on the three bands and never in 160. On 80 no one listen me. Now it’s into my garage and I am use an inverted L for lower bands.

    My HF9V is a real performer, especially since I installed 64 radials (and covered it with volcanic landscaping rock). I make use of an electric hedger to bury radials in the yard when I can’t simply bury them like I did with the Butternut.

    Why not just load up the “Clark” 40 footer in the background, stick another 20 ft of light gauge Ali pole into it with some top loading and it would out preform this new demo vertical hands down.
