Ham Radio Blog | HF Vertical Antennas & HOA Flagpole Antennas, 160-6M

We have a story about a gentleman who took delivery of a Greyline Flagpole Antenna. He dug his hole in the backyard and installed the antenna. It worked great and looked great too. So much so that his XYL became nostalgic just after the installation recalling her childhood at her father's home years ago. "Honey, that reminds me of my father, will you put that in the front yard so we can enjoy it?" He dug another hole. Greyline Performance is Smarter, Stronger, and oh so Elegant. #hamr

Jon of Greyline Performance made the Cover of CQ Magazine with his friends, September, 2021. "Literally, just a snap shot of some good friends, overlooking a superstation, surrounded by salt water, in Southern Europe. Doesn't sound real, does it?" says Jon, KL2A.

We get lots of email asking for more examples of RV and camping ham radio adventures. Here's a short story with video and pictures of a campground portable ham radio operation with a Greyline Performance HF Vertical Antenna and 40 Watts in the Sawtooth Wilderness near Sun Valley, Idaho. It was so quiet, if we could here it, we could work it. We were on a high ridge with a giant mountain reflecting the signals (or so it seemed!). Click to read the story. Ham Radio is fun again. Pass it on.
