The Horizon HOA Buster Transformer, coupled with your chain-link fence, creates a system that turns your HF station into an on-the-air, multi-band marvel.
All you need is the Yard Dog Transformer and a feedline. It’s perfect for HOA-busting temporary or permanent installs.
The Horizon Yard Dog Transformer gives you immediate access to several HF bands. It follows your transceiver and changes bands without pushing any buttons, adding any ground radials, or re-tuning. You can work more stations in less time than ever before. Plus, it is priced lower than most cumbersome and marginal antennas sold by other companies.
Horizon Yard Dog HOA Buster SWR Results
The Horizon Yard Dog HOA Buster was tested at the center of a 120-foot chain-link fence. The chart above shows typical VSWR results across multiple amateur HF bands, with coverage available on 160, 80, 40, 30, 20, 17, 15, 12, 10, and 6 meters.
These results were achieved without a tuner, making the Yard Dog a simple and effective option for HOA-restricted locations, temporary setups, or permanent installations where a traditional antenna system may not be practical.

The Horizon Yard Dog HOA Buster Transformer turns an existing chain-link fence into a usable multi-band HF antenna system. Instead of installing a large visible antenna, the Yard Dog couples your transceiver to the metal fence structure, allowing the fence itself to become part of the radiating system.
Installation is simple. The transformer mounts directly to the chain-link fence using the included aluminum clamps. Once it is secured, you connect your feedline and begin operating. No ground radials are required, and the system does not need manual band switching or constant re-tuning when moving between supported bands.
The Big Dog Transformer is designed to follow your transceiver as you change bands, giving you access to several HF bands without pushing buttons or making adjustments. This makes it a practical option for HOA-restricted locations, temporary setups, or permanent installations where a traditional antenna may not be possible.
