Well, after almost 12 months of deliberation the end fed antenna is finally up, brought about by a respite from the windy or wet days. First impression is its working ok, which is more than can be said of my back lol.

🎣📡 ENDFED Antenna - SWR testing with uSDR
SWR results across different bands using the built-in analyzer. In the video you can see real-time measurements and how the antenna performs at different frequencies.
Results have been quite promising!

So far, I can't get it to indicate a good tune anywhere, although I'm receiving some strong signals (on 80m). What I'd heard of before is on-ground antennas being good for RX only, & this is what I'm seeing.
Possibilities:
1. Doesn't work with an #EndFed
2. Ground/Soil characteristics here are not conducive as compared to hers.
3. My 49:1 un-un suffered some weather damage since I last used it (2 years ago).
4. She's trolling. She IS Russian, after all. Her vid might be 100% BS.
