Hello friends:
My name is Ruben and my callsign eb5esx.
I am from Spain.
I want install an HF antenna in my new QTH to use it with an Icom 706MKIIG.
I live in a building and i can't install a very big antenna.
I think that Comet CHA-250B is very interesting for me, but i have been reading about Diamond CP-6 and other vertical HF antennas.
What do you think?
What is you advice?

Have you tested any vertical antenna that you like more?

A lot of thank's for your atention.

I suggest you check out both of these antennas at the "Reviews" section of eHam.net. They are both compromises, of course, due to their short length. I believe you will find the Diamond to be slightly more efficient. Gud luck es 73. Tom K3MOV

I opted for the cp6,with radials it should be better than an antenna without like the 250. Good quality diamond,need a tuner for 80m.
