Anyone have one of these antennas? I bought one, and there was something I did not like and still waiting for an answer from both Chameleon and DXEngineering. Apparently they changed the mast holding the loop to the tuning box. The top of the mast has a "bolt" with a tightener for the loop when it is attached. The bolt looks bent, and instead of screwing onto the loop, I literally have to screw the loop onto the mast. I don't recall seeing that in any videos. Tge mast also is now raise and then twist to secure. Is it me? LOL. I'm considering asking Chameleon for one of the older masts that actually locks like a camera tripod

And on a side note...when I did get the loop on and assembled the antenna, tuning as amazingly easy. Unfortunately it was a noisy day in the neighborhood

DXEngineering stepped up. They are replacing the antenna. I recommend them for their excellent customer service. Any mod, can you lock this thread? Thanks.
