1. The portable long wire antenna is a simple kit that contains all the necessary components.

It is a simple and effective shortwave antenna that can be deployed quickly.
It is light in weight, small in size, convenient to carry and easy to erect.
It is widely used for shortwave, medium wave duty listening and QRP radio transmission.
It is suitable for the erection of outdoor camping, emergency communication and other temporary places.
(If you want to permanently fix the erection, you need to strengthen the strength of the cable and the waterproofness of Balun)

2. The antenna assembly includes about 16.2 meters of insulated copper wire (antenna element),
12 meters of drawstring (divided into two coils), 9:1 Balun,
6 meters of 50 ohm coaxial feeder and a SMA to BNC adapter.

3. Simple installation, no welding required.
The height of the antenna is as high as possible.
Need to stay away from buildings, trees or other large objects.
The ideal erection site requires a space of about 25 meters.
If the space is too small, you can trim the excess traction rope, but at both ends of the antenna element and support structure, each side should not be shorter than 1 meter (3-4 feet).
If it is still too long, you can shorten the antenna element. But this will reduce the efficiency of the antenna.

4. It is a good choice to erect on the roof.
Because the floor slab of the reinforced concrete structure will block and absorb various interference signals generated by various electrical appliances in some buildings, and the surrounding environment is relatively open, which is conducive to the antenna receiving signals.

5. Setting up between two buildings is not a good choice.
Because the building is a reinforced concrete structure, it will block and absorb the signal.
Various interference signals generated by various electrical appliances in the building will be radiated through the windows and received by the antenna
