This antenna works so well I thought my radio was broken!
I have now taken it on 3 POTA deployments. I really wanted to put it through its paces before I did a review.
It did so well on 20m, with such a low noise floor, I thought my radio settings were wrong and my attenuator was on max. Nope, just an excellent antenna.
Consistently able to get this antenna deployed and tuned to below 1.1:1 in less than 5 minutes. That’s incredibly hard to beat. Obviously audio reports are subject to the propagation gods, but I have been getting great reports as far as California and across the Caribbean from Central Florida. The tripod has 100 different uses and configurations as well.
10/10 recommend!
I’ve really enjoyed using the HexTenna. It’s easy to set up, packs down well, and has worked great with my G90. One thing I also appreciate is that Alpha Antenna cares about making amateur radio accessible to everyone. As a veteran with a hearing-impaired wife, I especially appreciate the company’s commitment to accessibility and ADA-focused design. I respect companies that support service members and work to make this hobby available to as many people as possible. Thanks for making a great product.
I have not had a chance to use the antenna yet, but the construction is very robust and since I picked up the antenna directly, the people at the company were fantastic to work with. Cannot recommend their products enough.
A GREAT antenna…Easy assembly and POTA ready
You all have been great. Very responsive and I am very pleased with the obvious quality and thought that goes in to your products. Loving my Hextenna! Looking forward to lots of POTA activations in my future. Thanks!
