Butternut HF2V After my DX-88 died in a winter storm, I have decided to give the Butternut HF2V a try. This antenna is a 10 meter long vertical for 80 and 40, with extensions available for the 160 and 30 meter bands. I was rather curious about it since this is the only vertical antenna that provides the four lower bands in one package. My success with antenna have been very satisfactory so far. As a bonus it even works well on 15 meter band with flat SWR and has a sharp resonance peak in the 10 meter band.

I have a lots of pictures of the HF2V in my picture gallery.
