I purchased the 24ft at Hamcation a couple of years ago and its performed great. Using my Ft710 paired with the MFJ969 and I get a near perfect SWR on 40. I have talked allover the world. Thinking of upgrading to one of the longer versions.

I've used several Ulitmax antennas, they're great.

I need to look into this antenna since I am living in a HOA

I bought the 40, 80 VEE and it works very well, SWR is LOW. I have it at the SPECS for height and ends off the GND. WORTH the $$. I switch from one vee to the 40, 80 and big difference, waterfall sure shows it. My 2c worth. HIH

How are you grounding your second floor condo shack?

[@kc6nfv746]

Also be good for those who have a receiver only no transmit

[@user-fv8wf6tv4u]

I used the ultra max 100, not too bad for the price, but I built my own version at half the price using a unun from balun designs, but nonetheless the ultra max does a decent job

[@8981USMC]

Nice 👍

[@mrcoog3k832]

How are their long antennas? Which performs best in a non-HOA situation?

[@HamRadioOutlet]

Generally speaking, the longer the better.

[@jeffhl2w5abq63]

For the Ultimax 100 with bands 80M TO 6M, it is the 66 Ft. For the DXTREME End-Fed bands160M to 6M Antenna 124 Ft Long. These two will have the best performance. 73!

[@dheller777]

How high would the sloper need to be to work on 80 with a tuner?

[@HamRadioOutlet]

25 - 30 feet should do it.

[@dheller777]

@@HamRadioOutlet Thank you. Just purchased will give it a try.

[@HamRadioOutlet]

@@dheller777Cool! Have fun!

[@kc6nfv746]

My nephew may want this antenna and he won't have to buy the book antenna for Dummies kc6nfv

[@kc6nfv746]

Saw this at HRO it's not very long the antenna be good for H O A maybe inside some apartments or you live in a 4 plexs apartment type of building mite be able to hide it outside your place also some R V parks if you have a tree in your yard you hang it from

Too much superfluous bs! Show it and don’t tell us what you’re going to do. Just show it. Don’t need all the “filler”!!
