The frustration comes in that the End Fed discussion was quite long and an antennas group came out of it. The discussion and arguments should've moved there but people keep reviving it here. While it's true that some people use an end fed on their ubitx, I don't. I use one on my Kenwood while camping and have one here for 40-10 for whatever rig I happen to be using for a base station.

I have been following this thread from the beginning, there was an
interesting debate other than fun at times with seemingly opposite
views. I don't see where frustration could come from this thread. Was it
related to uBitx? Partly yes, some Ubitx users use this antenna, others
like me want to understand what is inside the black box transformer. And
as this antenna operates with a satisfactory efficiency on the harmonics
too, a uBitx user has to take this into account.

The "antennas" group was started out of frustration with the ongoing
going on about
end-fed antennas. Starting that group was partly in hopes that the
end-fed discussion
might move there, and partly as a social experiment to see if it
would move. Now there
are end-fed discussions on both the BITX group and on the antennas
group. Not sure
if that is progress or a comment on social aspects of discussion groups.

Why are we still having discussions on End Fed Antennas? Thought
that was why the Antenna email list was started.
