Post Anyone with a Buddipole?
If you have a Buddipole would you please share your experiences with me?
I just bought the basic model and am struggling to get resonance in any ham band.
Thanks in hope.

Did you not get the sheet explaining which taps on the coils offered best resonance for different bands?
