Note:
1. The antenna is to be used either with a magmount placed on a car or a similar structure that acts as a sufficient counterpoise. It is not intended to be mounted directly onto a shortwave radio.
2. The antenna is primarily intended for POTA use. It must not be mounted on a vehicle while driving. Moist environments must be avoided during storage and operation to prevent possible corrosion.
