Prowhip Vertical HF Portable Aerial

Using the lower radio bands ('Shortwave Bands') from a portable location takes some planning. You obviously need a radio, but you also need a lightweight, easy to erect and take down, portable and efficient aerial. That aerial also needs to be able to electrically tune to the several 'bands' that we Radio Amateurs use.

I could have made a similar aerial but, after much research, I found that I would not be saving any money & the 9m vertical aerial from Prowhip is tried and tested.

I shall be posting some photos later and give you a 'user's view' of how well the aerial works - although, on first testing, it seems to be very efficient & effective.
