Kelly, Your ground system may be worse than you think..or maybe you have geographical disadvantages. My ground mounted HF9V allows me to work DX on 80 meters. It's not going to compete against a quar

Hi, I have an HF6V, which I realize, despite all Butternut's protestations to the contrary, is really just a base-loaded vertical on 80. It's ground-mounted. It SUCKS on 80! And I have a not bad grou

Kelly, I have the Butternut hf2v, never owned the hf6v, so can only speak to the hf2v which is an 80/40 meter based loaded vertical ground mounted and using just 12 radials buried below the surface m

When I lived in Washington State, I put an HF2V on top of a 35 foot tower. It had 4 quarter wave 80 meter radials. It did an outstanding job of transmitting on 80. However, I found I could receive be

Kelly; The HF-2V Manual shows two lengths of top-loading wires that may be added to enhance 80 meter performance. Is this noted in the back of the HF-6V Manual? If so, I suggest you add three TL wire

Dear Kelly, I have used the HF2V from 1995 to 1997 and when it was elevated 10 ft with a few radials it was a killer on 40m and a good antenna on 80m. In 1997 I decided to replaced it with dipoles fo

The HF2V manual also warns that if too much Top Loading is used, 40M operation is impaired. I expect ANY top loading will make an HF6V unusable on the higher bands. Basically, the best solution is a

Kelly, I have a butternut HF6Vx I mounted it in the ground and still needed radials for 40 and 80. Lets face it Verticals need radials. I have now moved it to the roof with tuned elevated radials (no

The problem with the HF2V and HF6V verticals is that they are BASE LOADED on 80M which is the LEAST EFFICIENT method of loading a short vertical. A good ground system does NOT make up for this defici

Kelly es Randy, I had my HF6V at 10 feet with elevated radials as Randy described (4 twin lead+ 1 for 80m). (I'm using Aluminum instead of Copper for 80 meters though.) Added another 80 meter (66 foo

I have been told that top loading (inductance) is bad, if possible. That the only top loading one is a cap hat. I understand the inductance is best just above the centre of the physical antenna. Howe
