I would like to hear any further updates once you get some time on this new antenna. I bet that the SWR curves would be skewed substantially if you installed this as an inverted V, or as a dipole at 30'.
The curves on their website are for an antenna at 30 ft. I talked with one of their engineers about the impedance change at 80 feet and he felt it wouldn't be an issue which proved out with the MFJ. I was surprised to see it follow their curves so accurately.
As for inverted V, the website says "Angle of feed each side must be great than 45 degrees or 120 – 180 degrees total between each side preferred." So it looks like the V would need to be more on the wide side.
SWR is very high on 160m (expected) but it receives really well. So far, I am very please with it and will report back when I get some transmit stories to tell.
