Thanks a lot for showing this new product! For serious SOTA activations, a low weight of the carried equipment is the #1 requirement. Therefore my first question concerns the weight for the whole antenna system, including the coax, radials, winder, etc. Therefore, it would be very interesting to know the total weight of your shown solution. BTW: I have not met a serious SOTA activator that uses PL or UHF connectors. Mainly because they have no defined impedance, are big, heavy and clumsy to use in the cold, compared to a BNC connector. Why do portable antenna manufactures still use these 90 year old connectors? It can't be the 4mm diameter socket that fits a banana plug... 73 Stephan

It was only a matter of time before Chameleon was going to enter the resonant antenna market. This CHA coil will appeal to those willing to make a premium investment. The Wolf River Coil will continue to win on price point. Actually, the CHA coil appears to be a more rugged version of the SuperAntenna. Same sliding mechanism, although the outer delrin construction and power rating gives the CHA the advantage. Kudos to Chameleon for stepping up their game.

Hello! This coil is interesting, now one can buy it instead of the wolf river coils or all the other variants. I have a suggestion that maybe you could take to chameleon: add some marks to the coil to show where (more or less) the antenna will be resonant. Just like the MC-750 does. We all know that depending on soil conductivity this changes, but just as initial reference. Also, not regarding this antenna kit: the ss17, make a version of it painted in green. Oh god, it’s incredible the amount of attention a metallic whip gets in the park. If I had of one these in green it would help so much. Also, sell the ss17 with stickers so we can mark the resonant points when we use it with some radials for a 6-20 meters antenna. 73

Nicely done video, Bob. This looks very interesting and it looks like Carl and Chameleon have another winner. While I believe I have a preference for my MPAS 2 for fixed and portable locations since I don't have to go to the antenna to QSY, I see some real benefits of this new "Bob's Your Uncle" system (how's that for a name??) A couple of key issues: hopefully, the final product will have numbering on the coil for fast adjustments when QSY. With regard to both this new Chameleon system and also the coil antenna you reviewed a few weeks ago: is there a way to attach a standard stainless steel whip-like is used on the MFJ, etc. single band cheapie antennas? The reason I ask is that I'm currently using a Wolf River Coils Silver Bullet Mini as my HF mobile antenna with a separately purchased 58-inch stainless steel whip. This works very well but it is a pain in the ass to adjust precisely when QSY - even with Sharpie marker indicators. (I partly solved this problem by using my Elecraft T-1 tuner with the WRC and my ICOM 705 in the car.) If Carl at Chameleon is reading these comments for this review, I would whisper to him to make the package work as a mobile antenna by allowing a stainless steel whip to be used as a stinger since the included adjustable whip probably will not be durable enough for mobile use at 75 miles an hour and all those low hanging branches at lower speeds.

Marking the coil will be a VERY hard task because inductance will vary depending of antenna installation method: SPIKE MOUNT, UCM, Tripod, Jawmount and others. It will also depend of the RF ground quality: 1, 4 or 6 counterpoises, elevated or not, soil conductivity, etc... But that being said - we're thinking about an universal way of measuring the tuning coil position so all users would be able to understand where they need to position the coil for THERE personal needs and NOT on standardized needs. We also have stingers (thousands of them) that will be offered to either be used as radiator or as counterpoise (with a special adapter) for those who can't extend a 33' long counterpoise.

@@Chameleon_Antenna Thanks for the response… Carl sent me the MPAS 2 (along with several other antennas over the years)… For the past 12 months, I have been using the MPAS 2 as a vertical on my second-story balcony with just one counterpoise that was included in the kit. It has withstood the weather well and performed almost as well as my 67 foot 40-10 EFHW that slopes up to 50 feet. MPAS 2 is a GREAT antenna in my opinion! With regard to the new antenna, all the factors that you mentioned will come into play. However, the easy approach that other companies are using is just to print the number on the coil. Even though it is an arbitrary linear sequence of numbers, the customer will be able to know that for a particular setup, (e.g., 17m is always close to 24 on the scale.) This is something that's missing on my Wolf River Coils Silver Bullet Mini. Best of luck with your rollout of this new antenna and give my best regards to Carl!

White Delrin which is THE BEST material for that kind of product. Yes - it's MORE expansive than PVC, ABS or Home Depot Schedule 40 plumbing pipes BUT it's will offer an unparalleled core support for the loading core. Delrin has outstanding fatigue resistance, almost indefinitely withstanding cyclic compressive/tensile stressing 5,000 psi. Delrin does not permanently deform or retain dents, and has good impact toughness. Delrin does not use plasticizing for toughness: and so does not become brittle at low temperatures. An excellent dielectric, Delrin has remarkably low dissipation factors and dielectric constants over a wide range of frequencies and temperatures. Delrin retains good electrical properties in high humidity and even during complete immersion in water.
