Original owner. This antenna was mounted for one season. It was
removed to for planned 6m Rover antenna project (No tune).
Unfortunately, I never got around to any rover activity. Antenna is
painted matte green to prevent corrosion and provide some NorthWest
stealth. All connections have been treated with anti-oxidant grease to
prevent corrosion. A balun is not necessary with this antenna, but I
will include a homebrew balun for your convenience. I had some nice
contacts as far away as Nova Scotia with this antenna.
Antenna is in excellent condition. No physical damage of any kind,
some mild paint weathering.
Factory Assembly Instructions included.

Retails for $124. Asking $75. At this time I would prefer local pickup
(no shipping).

up for one season before being removed to make room for a rotor
mounted TV antenna (gotta keep the wife happy). Antenna is painted
matte green to prevent corrosion and provide some NorthWest stealth.
All connections have been treated with anti-oxidant grease to prevent
corrosion.
