Hoy!

Thank's for the very interresting link to the isotron reviews. It's nice to
see that citizen's band 's still living on...
Everyone decided to buy one and was pleased by the SWR... but none of them
seemed concerned about radiation patterns and loss (negative gain?), nor by
the classical "how does it work" question.

No they were all happy to kick 50W power in it to make DX with the guy in
the village nearby... DX begins at your door... But never heard about ground
wave propagation.

Nevermind... As far as everybody's happy, it's all good!

Howdy y'all.

I had to finally try one. Got a 40meter Isotron, put it up at about 15'.
It
does work.

Not sure how well, but it sends and hears. Worked a guiy in Cuba from
Awstin, TX and a K6 on CW. Not the greatest reports.

Anybody else tried them?

Just curious. Please no flames. This was idle curiosity.
