    A nicely made flex-weave half-size G5RV , ready to be installed with a bit of additional protection covering the exposed metal parts.

    Having had a similar flex-weave half G5RV up for about ten years, I decided to continue with a new one, after the old one had corroded. The plastic covering over the weave had become cracked and water was getting inside. The new one arrived and upon inspection, it was built very similar to my old one. I would say the junction between the ribbon cable and S0239 was better designed. With sufficient protection, the coax cable PL259 should remain water proof, as had my old one. I used self-amalgamating tape before to achieve this. One thing I did notice was the crimp connectors on the T piece were a bit stressed, the plastic being crimped with a pair of pliers, rather than the correct tool, or so it would seem, leaving the insulators crushed rather than crimped. I hope to install the new antenna soon and get back on the air.

  • Most critical review

    G5RV Full Size 102 Feet Superior polly Wire Antenna

    It works well at 80, 40, 20 and in parts of 10 m. It looks well made, but I'm a little worried about the strength of the grip of the end insulators of the dipole. Only a centimetre of wire is left after the clamp. It worries me that it can easily get away in stronger winds. Overall a good product for its price.

  • Excellent antenna.

    Really impressed with this G5RV, very well built, just had to connect the 300 ohm window line to the feedpoint and seal it up then hang it up and plug it into a auto tuner. I was delighted to see the tuner find a good match on every band easily, even 6m, as my previous G5RV used to struggle with 60m, 30m and 15m. It is up at 30ft with a 4ft hang down on one leg and a sharp bend in the other leg. I live in a heavily built up area so noise is a problem always but this antenna seems to be a better receiver and also transmitting then my previous antenna which was a Carolina Windom. Yes, I am very pleased with it.

  • Excellent value for money

    This is an excellent antenna, very well made and excellent value for money. Most amateurs have wires to construct this antenna but if you priced up the parts for constructing one, it would cost more than this antenna on Ebay. That was the reason why I bought this ZS6BKW instead of making one . I wanted to compare a ZS6BKW to my Windom antenna.. I found I could use it on most frequencies without an antenna tuner and it compared favourably to the Windom. I have been an amateur for 58 years.

  • Nice stainless steel poly weave dipole

    Nice antenna well built but poly weave is stainless steel, would prefer stranded copper, strength using steel is great but I don’t care about stretching and never had a cooper dipole break.

  • Absolutely great dipole if you use an external tuner you can use it in 30mt

    Great antenna, I'm using this dipole for 40mt and 30 Mt with great reports. Good match with my ft991a and mt-30 external atu

  • Good quality half size G5RV antenna

    on receipt, noticed that the antenna was well constructed, using good quality materials. Antenna was neatly wound, all ready to install. Installation was simple, and most importantly the antenna works very well on 40m.

  • A great buy!

    It is built really well. I got it up as an inverted v at about 40 feet. The swr's were great and I got some really good signal reports using it.
