Finally made it to 122's QTH and installed the antenna for the video. SWR is fine from around and ends at with the CEPT Band 26965-27405 totally flat, does not move at all. 3 small radials and the antenna was assembled to the black marks that come on the metal and away she goes. First two qso's with my DX5000 and 40w was 158ET and 347AT Klein Curacao so thats excellent enough. ((No HF 11m radios now, only mono band Maas or KPO ) An antenna that is perfect for shooting skip either in the summer or from the islands and rated at 1kw. In Germany have tested the antenna with 1kw and was fine on SSB. Although not used for long times with PTT pressed. Made in Birmingham and now sold world wide. This video is made for all CB Friends and Mihai and his team at Radiocommunicare so they can see the antenna in its glory on a sunny day although cold. So thats it, the Venom 5/8 3 radials and build with the black marks and the SWR is something almost spot on
