Call 0345 2300 599The Wonder Wand End Fed Half Wave is a compact radio-mounted portable antenna designed for fast HF deployment on 10m, 20m, and 40m.
Building on the trusted Wonder Wand design, this portable EFHW antenna is ideal for SOTA, POTA, field days, and lightweight portable operating. It connects directly to your radio via BNC, giving you a true grab-and-go antenna system without needing a long coaxial feedline or separate matching unit.
The antenna is supplied with three separate resonant wires, one each for 10m, 20m, and 40m. This allows you to choose the correct wire for the band you want to operate, helping keep setup simple and efficient in the field.
