  Also where can I get the crimping parts and crimping tool from and where to get the banana clips from? Or should I say the best place to get them from? I want to be cheap but good quality if all possible.??

  Also can the wire you used can it handle 100watts?

  How can I make an antenna that covers 80,40,20,17,15,10 meter bands and have it so I can hook up a pl259 to it?

  Mike. I ordered the 2mm banana connectors from your amazon list for antennas and accessories.  Only what I got was not what was pictured in the listing. The end that the wire goes into is on 3/32" deep and no hole to feed the solder.  I think the seller changed the product but left the pics of the old product. Just giving you a heads up since it's in your recomended Amazon list.

  Where do you get the s-biners that have the strain relief holes?

  Hi Mike, thank you for the great video. I am in the process of building the antenna and have pretty much everything I need now. However, the ferrules I ordered from the link (N25007) are too small. The other link is for ferrules that are even smaller and I have not seen any ferrules that could fit on the ferrules direct website. Can you share the link to the correct ferrules you are using? Please thank you

  Love it.. very helpful.. However, I don't understand what happened with the 17M element.  If you built it, tuned it.. why did you have to rebuild it?  I've never built an EFHW and am ready to give it a go. Low level answer, if you will.. I'm not the brightest bulb in the box.

  I'm going to be building one of these as soon as parts arrive. I have a question, though. I intend to use a counterpoise with mine. Would it be advisable to make the counterpoise linked as well for each band, or would a single length work well for them all?
