If you deploy it vertically, you of course get a nice, low takeoff angle. I haven't had a chance to try one since ol' Sol started making his comeback, but I bet it will be great for the upper HF bands now that propagation is picking up a bit.

When portable, I've used a Buddipole and Buddistick, wire dipoles, and an endfed 85 foot wire with a 17 foot counterpoise (the W3EDP antenna), but I've had it in my mind to try the EFHW for a while now. I think this will be my next portable antenna. Polyvaricons and toroids here we come! Great stuff - thanks for posting Jason.
