- THE REEL POTA-ble EFHW Antenna is a truly unique, and versatile portable antenna. Designed for quick and easy deployment with portable operators in mind. The antenna is light, and compact, easy to fit in most Go Bags. It features a 49:1 transformer built in to a reel box. The round spool keeps the flexible silicone 20 ga wire from kinking, and provides smooth deployment and retraction. One of the unique features of the Reel POTA-ble antenna is the integrated active connection between the transformer and the radiating element. This allows for fine tuning, unlike some traditional EFHW antennas with fixed length wire. An example is our antenna is pre-tuned for the lower end of 40 meters, and with 12 cranks of the handle it's now resonant at the top of the band. Please see SWR plots pictures and Video. With the wire fully extended 20, 15, 10 meters are ready to go, no tuner required. The Antenna is rated for 100 watts SSB, and 35 watts FT8/CW, or other Digital modes. The antenna comes with a convenient Stainless Steel loop. and S-Biner for easy attachments in the field. This is a great POTA, SOTA or Field Day, antenna.

I have had this antenna for about a month and have activated about 8 parks. This antenna has out performed my expectations! One park I made 73 contacts in about an hour! I used my antenna analyzer and figured out how many turns each band was to make them 1:1. I wrote those down and use them every time. I have nothing negative to say about the Reel Port-able antenna.. You won’t be disappointed!

This Antenna Tunes great
The antenna tunes to the low end of the bands with no adjustment, since I’m cw only this suits me fine. Adjusting for SSB would be easy.

Excellent Antenna
I bought this antenna to use for Parks on the Air activations and it performs well for that. I like the ability of having multiple bands to use. It is easy to set up and take down especially with the reel function. I have also used this at home in my backyard as a second EFHW and it seems to perform just as well as my permanent EFHW. I highly recommend this antenna.
