Chameleon Antenna Lightweight 4010 End Fed Halfwave Sloper is a four-band HF antenna for use on the 40-10 meter Amateur Radio bands without the need for a tuner and 30, 17, and 12 meters is possible with the help of a tuner. Near-Vertical Incident Skywave (NVIS) communication is possible, but dependent on the configuration of the antenna when installed. The CHA-LEFS-4010 is designed for the trail and its minimalistic design and lightweight components make this antenna ideal for backpackers, hikers, bikers, campers, and survival communication. The built-in line winder with its integral high-efficiency 49:1 impedance matching transformer and ultra-thin 20 AWG PTFE antenna wire enables extremely portable four-band operation without the extra bulk of an antenna tuner. With the addition of user supplied antenna wires that have been cut to length for the desired band of operation, two insulators and support rope, this CHA-LEFS-4010 antenna can be converted to a standard or inverted V dipole antenna. Elevate your portable operations with the exceptional performance and convenience of the CHA-LEFS-4010.
