AR-10-26-29.7 MHz 10-11 Meter Vertical Base Antenna, Ringo

Installed this antenna recently and I'm not very impressed with the performance. It is easy to assemble & tune with the provided instructions that are actually well written for once. Beyond that... I'll just say it works but not great. I expected more from this brand.I'm using it on 10 meters FM, 50 watts maximum.This is a narrow band antenna. It will tune from 10-11 meters but in a very narrow window of each band. For example the 10 meter band suggests three different overall lengths for the portion of the band you select. Once one is chosen you can fine tune it from there to a near perfect match. Once tuned anything above or below a few Khz of your selection will suffer.All bare aluminum construction. Unsure how well it will hold up over time w/ oxidation.I plan to replace it when I find a better model.The price was low!

Light weight and fewer inches of reflecting elements for birds to roost on :-)

Easy to assemble. This antenna is OK but could have a better distance. I have it mounted on a 20 foot steel pipe. Have a problem reaching 10 miles. N1GRW

Excellent antenna. Highly recommend it.

putting mine back up after tree damage, have used ringos on all but 6m , going on 50 yearsmight get a 6 this summerworking well, long time

I placed a Cushcraft AR-10 into service about a year ago. It's really improved my signal (Transmit & Receive) on the 10 Meter FM Amateur Radio Band. The antenna is well constructed, easy to assemble and tune and made a video during the construction and testing period.[...]
