Default Off topic vernacular designed to irritate others

Cecils' comment goes directly to the issue.

A WINDOM is a 136 feet long antenna that is fed 36% off center with a SINGLE
WIRE against ground.

No balun is necessary!!

Heck, no coax is necessary; or, no twin lead is necessary! Just a wire.

Anything advertised as a coax fed windom is NOT a WINDOM!!

On topic, I hope to but up my Windom soon.



Are you using the single wire vertical
feedline that is characteristic of a Windom?



Cecil:

He shouldn't have potted it. Just use a mechanism to remotely remove
the ferrite core at 10 meters and insert if for the lower bands!
