As a *very* loose definition of work, I would say that I would expect
an antenna that advertises itself as an "all band" would allow a modern
Transceiver to put our something like full power, that is, to not fold
back on power. Oh yeah, and to radiate something. I don't see a tuner in
that diagram, so take your pick whether they are assuming an internal


tuner.


if i bought a similar antenna, i'd assume i'd need a tuner. i mean i needed
one with my 120 foot (60 + 60) foot doublet. you don't even need a real
fancy tuner, mine was a small Yaesu digital. it did have some problems on
40 meters (high Z?).


That antenna *would* work okay with ladder line, and a tuner that could
handle the same.

I decided to do something really radical. I just sent off an email to
BuxComm to ask just what type of antenna it is....
