-Beside some other little tryouts this is probably the first
-antenna that I built myself. It works without a tuner (depending
-on the actual position of the antenna).
-
-My first contact with this antenna was into Israel (~2629 km) with my
-older FT-891. It was contest time and I actually replied to a contest
-station because I thought nobody would hear me because of my crappy
-antenna but I found myself picked up by that contest station from Israel.
-
-The resulting report of _59_ would not mean anything but at least I knew
-the antenna was working just fine.
-
-I got a SWR of about 1:1 (1.02) when I measured the antenna in an L
-configuration -- approx. 1-1.5m above the ground.

+I am very happy with this antenna -- it is very compact when fold together
+and also quite compact when hung from on a mast. It takes about 5m into one
+direction and about 6m up on the mast.
+
+There is one disadvantage of this antenna: it is only for one frequency, but
+I usually achieve an SWR of about 1:1.1 instantly when I deploy this antenna
+at home in my garden.
+
+I made my fist SSB QSO with this antenna into Israel (about 2600km) with a
+Yaesu FT-891.
+
+Most of my Winlink sessions from home include this antenna as it takes minimal
+space and I work a winlink gateway in France or the Netherlands quickly (they
+respond often within the first request).
