GRA-HF750T HF Telescopic Antenna Adjustable Frequency 7MHz-50MHz for POTA Ham Radio, 50W SSB

Worked out of the box. No issues. Great portable antenna.

To be honest - I didn't expect much of this. I bought it because it has set frequencies and dows not require an analyzer to tune. However - It turned out to be a preattty good antenna, allowing for decent listening and has a few contacts ~2,000 km away from me. It qllows me to set up a lightweight station in my car for spontanious operations. Not the best performing antenna, but great value for money !

These are beautiful. I was able to get at least 2:1 or better on most of these without a tuner using an antenna analyzer. They are a bit touchy. The exception was 10 MHz. It was not resonate anywhere in the 30 meter band or anywhere else. The tuner on the kx2 elecraft could clean up everything except 30 meters. That’s an important band for me. Interestingly, a counter poise seemed to make little difference on the swr’s of all the bands. But adding a counter poise increased the reception a lot and I’m sure that would carry over to transmitting as well. Sadly I am returning these. I hate to think that they will be trashed somewhere. But I paid $137 for a complete working product.

Barely could get a Tuner to tune ANY of the loaded coils. I tested all both using 2 different Rid Expert Analyzers and a nanovna. they all start way out of spectrum, talking around 50-infinity SWR even with recommended upper element length. Sending Back sadly.
