[TowerTalk] Mystery antenna!

[Dave Thompson]

That is the Butternut HF-5 antenna.  I had one in temporary   position and it does work will as I remember its is a tri-band antenna no 17 or 12.  I thought it might work well for my St. Simon's Island location but I found it too gangling so I sold it to another ham and it has worked well for him.
