great video and it was great meeting you in the park.. getting to see this antenna in person was great also and learning a little more about the ham radio just in general!! thank you for taking the time to share all the info n just talk with me!! great guy n looking forward to meeting up with you again soon!!
Thanks for the review. I had heard about the Eagle One but couldn't visualize how they handled getting the wire inside it. Now I see how it uses another short pole for support. I've had a 30 foot fiberglass pole for many years and it's a great antenna tool. Now I have the idea of another way to use it!
I've had an Eagle One for over 5 years and mounted it on a re-purposed satellite dish pole. Run with 3 16 foot radials and 100 Watts. Talk to the world and have been extremely pleased with it. Gary - N1PZB
I have my eagle One stationary with a metal pipe in the ground and it fastened to that pipe instead of the tripod 50 ft coax swr stays good no radials it's best with the 9:1 UnUn I cannot complain swr is really good across almost all of the bands it holds up good in the 40 mph wind gusts so far I got it in I think October 2022 I will be trying it soon for a park activation here in Alabama when the weather gets right it will be my first parts on the air but time will tell. 73 KQ4AHR
Why all the twisting? If you pull each section to its limit a 1/2 twist is enough to lock it in place and on the next section 1/2 twist the other way. Then you won’t have all the curly qs in the wire going up or down. I use a drive on pole holder for a JacKite 30’ pole and run my wire up the outside. Saves a lot of work untwisting the wire and I can make mine a sloper, a vertical, or an end fed with another pole. Eagle One is a neat idea though. Dave K8WPE
Hi James Im new to ham, please excuse any newbie questions I have. I appreciate the review on this antenna. Can you drive with this antenna attached to your truck?
@@HamRadioAdventureGuy What type of wire does it have? I'm super interested in this antenna for my activations. I like to check everything out before I make the purchase though. I have a Mobile setup that is a FT-991A with a LDG AT-100 PROII and in my truck I have an FT-891 that I use an ATAS-120A with, both work exceptionally well with the ATAS-120A but no 75/80 meters. Is the feedline connector SO-239?

Nice 👍 job…..welcome to the Eagle One Club. I agree it’s a great antenna to have as an option for our activations based on operating locations- W1FYG

Now that you have had this for awhile how do you like it.

seen a lot of people break antennas when they fall from that
works good on 10m. i have one. n8rhj
I use a tuner and have done 6 thru 160 but 160 is rough
James, do you use a 4:1 or 9:1 unun with your Eagle One or just an antenna tuner?
Just a tuner
Hi James Im new to ham, please excuse any newbie questions I have. I appreciate the review on this antenna. Can you drive with this antenna attached to your truck?
No its 33ft tall
@@HamRadioAdventureGuy thank you for replying back. Thats a good size antenna. Thanks for the review!
James, Are you using an FT-991A with the internal tuner or another radio with external tuner? Tnx, Henry K3ABN
I use 991a external for 20 and 40 external for rest

@@hanknorris6450 I'm not sure they keep their material sources under wraps
Very nice, was wondering what that antenna was actually when reading the QSL card. Going to be sending you one back shortly. :)
Awesome I look forward to it
