I originally installed a Greyline DX 24' Flagpole, in my covenant restricted area,
about 3.5 years ago and made several thousand OSOs. Super quality material, was
easy to install and performed better than expected from my noisy locale.
Due to some issues with the park I live in and some performance degradation, I decided to
refurb the installation with new feedline, balun (my tuner does not have a built-in balun)
choke and the ladder line. During the process, I found a frayed part of the internal
ladder line that look like it was chewed on and a few other minor issues (weather related)
Needless to say, it fired up first time with no issues (I followed the tips) and seeing
signals and S levels I haven't seen in awhile..
The DX Flagpole antennas are well worth the investment as they work extremely well,
made of highest quality materials that will last for a very long time.
Longest QSO was about 12,500 miles on FT8. Super awesome.
