MP1DXG HF Portable Antenna with Ground Mount ham Radio Amateur Go Bag

Love this antenna! Works perfectly, super easy to use with the gauge to tell you what bad is where. Excellent value for the money especially if your looking for an all in one type solution.

This antenna is great! Managed to make contacts into Argentina and Portugal from California during contests, YMMV but I would recommend this antenna.

Just got the antenna yesterday and threw it in the ground last night. First contact was 1100 miles away and we were a +10 on their meter. Easy setup and easy tuning with minor adjustments. Plan to use it for POTA and any long term travel. Highly recommend.

Wasn’t expecting a whole lot from a stick in the ground. Main selling point was the rated watts. Using FT8, first contact was from the Pittsburgh area to Spain. I’m sold. EDIT: So after using two of these now I am still amazed at their performance. After removing the one that was set up in the front yard so the grass could be cut, I went back into the house, forgetting to put it back up. Later that afternoon I sat down at the radios and promptly tuned the FTDX10 and went on the air. I made contacts for about an hour with an SWR 1:1. The next day I walked out on the front porch and there was the antenna (without the radials connected), laying on top of the porch wall. Once again… I’m sold. The only issue at the moment is that there hasn’t been any restocking of parts for quite some time. If the company is reading these reviews, I hope they will address this.

Easy to setup and use. Made two thousand contacts during my trip to Wake Island.

I wasn't expecting much from this antenna, so I was pleasantly surprised by the quality of the build; all components are well designed and of high quality. The antenna sets up in seconds it's very easy to tune and it only took me a minute to put it together and get it on the air. I was able to make contacts with New Mexico Michigan Arkansas Colorado and Costa Rica all with good signal reports. My only complaint is that it doesn't seem to hear as well as some antennas do but it is a compromised antenna being that is the small coil loaded antenna but overall I'm very pleased with the antenna.

I bought the antenna for POTA. Wanted to try something quicker to deploy than my OCFD. It is certainly quickly and appears to be well made. Just be aware especially for low power QRP ops you are giving up a lot in performance compared to a wire antenna. However I did complete the activation I attempted with Super Antenna and am a fan of the ground spike mount, radials are nice also.

Concept is great, but even with auto tuner swr is bad. Used ruler then tried fine tuning but never better than 1.7 swr. Vna showed poor Smith graph and poor swr. Tried moving radials, moving mast, adjusting whip, but not very accurate. Another cheap loaded coul vertical should have stuck with my dipole
