I watched a youtube vid from vk2prc for an 20m halfwave endfed and built one. Pretty resonant across the band but i'm sceptical.  This vswr meter im using is over 20 years old and have a hunch its not giving me the right figures. a couple of counterpoise wires running on the ground but no ferrite chokes on the coax atm to remove that common mode current. 

First contact though was in the u.s and was pleasantly surprised considering this is the first antenna I've ever built. 

Driving a Kenwood TS430s on a small piece of rg58 coax & a shure 444D desk mic.  Gotta thank vk2prc for the help and vid instructions on this.
