This is an outstanding option for space restricted antenna use. I was going to put it in my attic but it is outside now in an inverted V configuration. I am in Texas and am getting QSO’s from the EU, Africa and of course all over North as well as a few from South America. I was surprised it doesn’t even have a connection for a counterpoise wire, but then if it uses the COAX sheath for that it’s Ok. I have a 1:1 UNUN on the shack end. SWR is down to 1.0:1 through my MFJ-949D tuner driven by my IC-7300 at full power both on SSB and digital modes. Nice product.

I bought the 66-foot version. I have it in a slope configuration: the dogbone end is on top of my chimney (about 23-25 feet high), and the transformer end slopes down to about 10 feet high. It works wonderfully well for my FT-100. I have not done any DX yet, but I’m absolutely satisfied with the performance.

I’ve had 5 of these over many years , gave 2 to friends. AN Incredible
antenna , Stealthy, Great performer on 6 or more bands with AUTO
TUNER In Icom 7300….a real space saver… Thank’s Alberto …..

I have the Ultimax 100 66 Ft end fed wire antenna… I couldn’t be happier with it. It’s well made and the auto tuner in my Yaesu FTDX10 tunes it on all bands.

I was skeptical about this antenna. I found out that I had issues with my USB radio to computer cable. Now that I replaced the cable this antenna works better than I could imagine on all bands that the manufacture said! I have the 49 foot model.

I have had my license for 30 years but have never operated HF. After my son got his license a year ago, he talked me into getting an HF setup. I pondered the idea of putting up a vertical but I decided to try this end fed. I have used the 49′ end fed antenna as my primary HF antenna for the last year and love it. I have made contacts on all continents. I use it with a Palstar AT2K tuner and, at worst, get 1.2:1 SWR across all the bands. I have it mounted horizontally between two wooden posts with 100′ of coax. I pulled it down and used it for field day, pulling it up to a tree limb in a slant orientation, using only the tuner on my Yaesu FTDX-10, with 1.3:1 SWR or less and great success. I recently purchased the 53′ DXETREME to replace the 49′ end fed at home. I plan on using the 49′ end fed for portable/POTA operations. I would recommend this antenna to anyone.

I have 2 of these antennas, 24 foot and 49 ft models. The 24 ft on I run on FT-8 with only 10 watts. Worked into Europe, Africa, South America and Asia with an LDG tuner

I was initially hesitant about the 24′ wire antenna, especially given my HOA restrictions.
However, after a couple of months, I decided to go for it. I’m glad I did—it simply works!
The FT-710 internal tuner handles nearly every band, and I only need an external tuner for 80 meters. Overall, the 24′ Ultimax 100 has exceeded my expectations and comes 100% recommended.
