The nice thing about being end fed is that it’s much easier to install. I hoisted the end of the antenna part way up my tower and attached the other end to the wood fence. It slopes about 35 degrees and between the tower and the guy wires there’s probably lots of interaction, not to mention the aluminum sided garage.
Pictures of antenna to follow…
