RadioBanter - I am impressed with my CondoBuster antenna

So I invested $20 and bought a CondoBuster. The ham radio antenna they
advertise on ebay.

Well, I am very impressed. The thing comes totally assembled. You
just attach your feed line and put it up. I used 300 ohm TV twin lead
because it is easy to close my window using that. With coax I can't
get the window all the way closed. I soldered the twin lead to the
antenna. You can use coax or twin lead.

I have a little balanced feed line antenna tuner I use with it.

The antenna is for 14 to 30MHz but I found it works great all the way
through the broadcast band.

It is about 35 feet long. I ran it from one corner of my house to a
tree on the opposite side of the yard. So the one end is up about 8 or
9 feet and the end in the tree is up about 12 feet. It goes up very
fast and easy. It is very light weight but made with strong wire.

It is kind of an unusual design. The instructions say that it is an
off center feed type of dipole.

The ad on ebay says "you will be amazed"...and I was. It delivers
excellent preformance. For $20 you can't beat it.
