My new Hy-Gain AV-680 Shortwave Vertical
Inhaltsverzeichnis
1 Scope
After using a GAP TITAN for over 10 years, I found that it was more and more out of resonnance, due to oxidation and greenweed growth. So I had to buy another shortwave vertical.
The small 1" pole was too lightweight, so we had to remove the fundaments and install a new massive tube as a mounting base for a new mast.
My friend Bernd DJ6PA advised that I should try another vertical which he had good experiences of, this time a HY GAIN AV-6x0, and since I have little space, I decided to buy the type with most shortwave bands.
WIMO sent it to me in no time, as usual: https://www.wimo.com/hygain-hf-vertikal-kw_d.html
And WIMO also has the original documentation for download.
