Is a broadband antenna worth buying?

BI1MMP

拿到呼号也快三年了，之前由于周边阻挡严重，热情还没烧起来就退了。

今年搬到了顶层，看楼顶有条件架天线，准备再次入坑

在天空的淘宝店看上一款老鹰HUV-8全波段基地台天线

不知道是否值得入，大佬们给点建议

Reliable solution: v750, K4GP

BI1MMP Did you ask about the antenna last night on frequency 439.750?

The sugarcane isn't sweet on both ends; it needs both... and... at the same time. This is unrealistic.
Based on your intended mode of operation (HF/UHF repeater or satellite?), what are some recommended local repeaters?
Then, consider experienced players with similar interests who use a more comprehensive system of rewards; this is likely the most mature and effective solution.
Of course, using a tower plus a rotating antenna and an eight-element Yagi antenna is always a viable option.😃👍

I'm not sure if it's possible to temporarily install a mast on the roof. If that's allowed, I could use different antennas to first measure the background noise level, and then choose an antenna based on my preferred operating mode (e.g., local or DX), as well as the installation environment.

BI1AVH It seems like I'm getting off track. I looked at that HUV-8 antenna, which is a broadband antenna and costs 1900 RMB.😨The efficiency of shortwave transmission is likely not very high, and it's probably more cost-effective to buy a simple whip antenna plus a feedline for around 100 yuan. It's best to avoid buying one.

The antenna needs a support structure, so consider either a full-sized "V" or "inverted V". A 2.7m GP in the city center is mainly for display purposes and can barely be used for FT8 or CW. Alternatively, you could buy a 5.6m telescopic pole for around 50 yuan to try it out first.

BI1SFO Last night, I tried using the 439.75 frequency on ClearLink. I asked if it might be a problem with my antenna, but I don't think so. I just set up the equipment yesterday, and initially couldn't connect at 438.450. I thought there might be something wrong with my antenna, but then when I changed the frequency, it connected immediately.

Thank you all for your replies and suggestions above. It seems that researching the setup scheme for a legitimate (verified) account is more suitable at this stage.
