Shark Antennas S-FM40 Mono Band HF 40 Meter Mini Mobile Vertical Antenna with 3/8x24 Threads, Handles 250W Max

A bit shorter than the longer classic hamstick with similar bandwidth. Covering 200Khz would be a stretch for either antenna if you expect a flat SWR. For a low profile HF antenna and easy to install, it’s great. If you expect more, look at the Hustler 40m super resonator or a screwdriver type. I wish the fiberglass and coil section was shorter and the whip longer so it would be safer, more versatile, and allow entry to a garage.

I attached this to my UTV was immediately picking up 40 and 20 meter digital transmissions from 2,500 miles away, with no need for grounding, radials, counterpoise, or antenna tuner. My receiver was a $35 SDR dongle.

Haven't really had a chance to use it yet, but its exactly what I was looking for. My intent is to mount it on a metal roof where I do not have a lot of space for antennas.

Quality is excellent. It's my fourth Shark antenna, and for vehicle use I'd highly advise getting the full length 40 meter if it fits your situation. 20 meter and under will get decent contacts on the mini, but the 40 mini struggles.

Easy to tune easy setup works great on 40M I talked to Alaska using it from central California. I really enjoy this one set up as a vertical right now.
