I strung up this end fed wire from the eve of the house at about 18 feet above ground to an eye screw in a tree at about 14 feet. Using an LDG IT-100 I was able to tune to better than 1.5:1 on all bands 80-6. I didn’t try 160. First QSO was France on 20m and then Florida on 40 and Virginia on 80. I’m on Long Island (New York). It works. The wire is heavier than most end feds and dipoles but the supplied insulators are adequate and using a pulley to hoist it up allows ice to be shaken off if needed. I’m happy with it.
