Equipment / Re: T2FD Antenna

« on: May 20, 2008, 1405 UTC »

I have an RF-Systems T2FD that I've used off & on.  It was my main antenna back in 2000 & as recently in 2006 until I switched to the EWE.  It was a great performer overall, but I wasn't satisfied with the high angle rejection & needed something a little more directional.  It did make for a great one-stop-shop setup for the HF spectrum as a whole.  If I was forced to choose only one antenna for all applications & band segments, it would be the one.

I don't know if I could make it to the 0800z slot, but definitely the 11400kHz @ 2200z is ideal for an east coaster like me (I'm in Fl.).  Give both a shot; you never know who might hear ya on 41 meters
