ZS6BKW Antenna - views?

Post by M0RGM »

Hi All,

I'm looking to add a second HF antenna in the garden and am considering a ZS6BKW to run North-South and complement my EFHW running East-West.

Familiar with the concept of the ZS6BKW and its advantages over the G5RV (which I used back in the '90s); I'd appreciate any comments or views from those who have actually used the ZS6BKW. Over to you guys.....
