I am thinking of putting up a windom antenna (see
http://www.hfantennas.com/Products.htm )and would like comments from
anyone who is using or has used one about the performance. Primay band
of interest will be 40 meters.

Thanks

I have operated on both an 80 meter G5RV and an 80 meter Carolina
Windom. Both performed well, but I lean towards the Carolina Windom.
The SWR on the Windom is below 3:1 on all bands and my internal tuner
has yet to have a problem matching it to any frequency. I resolved
the problem of the vertical arm by supporting at the feed point with a
fiberglass mast at 40 feet.
