Finally .... ! Saturday and Sunday, thanks to my friend Ettore IZ3ZVO and to the  final shot of Enrico IK3HHV, we were able to install the Hexbeam of SP7IDX (http://sp7idx-hexbeam.eu). I posted some photos of the result, I must say very charming.

Picture from the ground

Two days incredibly stressful, with thunderstorms and lightning, so we climbed on the roof "part-time" and only on Sunday afternoon we finished at 17.00, just 5 minutes before to come down the last lightening .... the first tests, the antenna has a low noise to a good gain when compared with the vertical GAP, in fact with only 100W in full pile-up I reached the Cameroon with a real SR of 5/9 with QRM. In the evening I did just listening, always taking as reference the Gap Titan, I'm really happy with this new antenna.

The antenna is mounted about 8 meters from the roof and 20 meters above the ground, the next evening, after work and after playing with my girls, I hope that the propagation is at a good level so as to do some tests.

The only problem we had was in the assembly, the antenna is sold as a "plug & play", has no reference measurements, and we had a bit of difficulty because the first barrel of fiberglass did not have the correct measurements, we have repeated the distances between the loop and at the end, with the drafting of the wire loop .... we had to change everything. I need to send an email to Waldi to report this problem, when you are on top of a roof, , very tight, it is not easy to do stunts!!
In any case, the antenna is very well built, has a dress very professional and the explanations are very clear, I have to congratulate for the excellent workmanship, Waldi.

From the roof, impressive!

Rainbow of hope (of sun)

Just before the last efforts....                                                                      

Last thing, I was amazed by the values ​​of SWR, a slight peak on average 1.1 to 1.4 on 15 meters and the thing I liked most ... from 49 to 51 ohms impedance with total J practically zero!

So thanks to everyone, now I will keep you informed of the evidence on the amateur bands and the DX that I can do.
