The TW2010 Traveler® Antenna
The TW2010 Traveler® is the perfect antenna if you are searching for high performance
DX communications in a portable package.
The Traveler® provides five-band, omni-directional communications in an easy-to-assemble
package that requires no radial ground system or towers.
The black powder coating assures stealth performance for Hams who operate in areas
with deed restrictions or other areas prohibiting permanently installed antennas and towers.
A low take-off angle - an outcome of the modified-H design - produces
maximum skip for successful DX transmissions and contact. The Traveler®
can be assembled in minutes for either permanent installation
on a mounting rod, or temporary setup using a sturdy, optional Quadrapod.

"Everything about this antenna is first class, from the shipping carton
and packing, to the antenna and controls. The first thing that struck me
very positively was the way the antenna was packed – all powder
coated parts where in a plastic sleeve. Controls, instructions and
cable were boxed separately in the same carton.
"The antenna is a vertical di-pole, very similar in concept to a
competitor (Sigma 5) and that is the only thing in common. The build
quality is great and does not look like it was put together in a
garage workshop.
"The antenna is very close to plug and play. The instruction manual in
my opinion is well written and illustrated, and makes it easy to get on
the air. Total assembly time for the antenna was about 8 minutes after
reading the manual. Not one problem putting it together. I like the
folding arms, should be great for portable use. The other nice feature
is no nuts and bolts -- about 80% if the antenna is assembled when you
get it.
"The control box for band switch is great, push button with LED indicator
lights and built like a tank.
"The antenna, at least for me, required no adjustment of the tuning coils.
SWR’s on all bands were 1.1 to 1, max was 1.5 on 17M. I used my LDG
tuner to make the final adjustment, but you really don’t need the tuner.
"How well did it perform? Great!! I worked GB100J (England Boy Scout’s
SE), France, the Ukraine, and Slovenia, CA, Utah, and Washington state
on 20M phone. On Sunday I got all my 10M contacts needed for 10-10
International. I was using my TS-480HX, running about 100 watts. Signal
reports were S8 to S9.
"I compared the antenna to my friends G5RV and Hustler vertical. It was
about 1-2 S units better than both and much quieter than the Hustler
and no need for radials.
"I think this antenna is well worth the price, compared to others of
similar design, and no need for a 5 gallon bucket of cement (Quadpod is
available)."

"Wow, at 1200 watts Traveler® handles near the full legal limit of output." Pete KR4TI
