DOes this antenna have gain? WIll high winds mess uo the tuning

section or
other part of the antenna?


It is a stacked colinear antenna so has about 6.2dB of gain. Very
impressive. I have it on the roof of my house. We live 150metres from

Juan
de Fuca Strait and often catch some very strong SW winds head on. The
antenna is still up and the tuning section hasn't moved!

Microsoft will soon release their newest product: a vacuum cleaner.
It will be their only product which doesn't suck.



I am having a little troubel understanding how to construct it. Can you
explain it to me? I am confused about the tuning section and how the
thing generally goes togther.
