[NCC] EFHW? Any experience?

[Anthony Luscre]

I have used one for the last 3 years as part of my portable FD setup.
I used the 132 feet MFJ-1982HP EndFed 1/2 Wave 800W 80M-10M Wire Antenna.
It was up about 25 ft in surrounding trees. It worked well on 80, 40 & 20M.
I had no problems with RF getting back into the radio, but as usual, I was
only running 5 watts.
