My friend says that a double bazooka is 98% efficiant
and that a dipole is only about 70% efficiant.
Is he right? Will a double bazooka outperform a dipole
enough to notice a difference on 40m?
The efficiency graphs in The ARRL Antenna Book indicate
that the double bazooka is NEVER more efficient than a
dipole and that it has lower efficiency at every frequency
other than resonance. Is your friend an Old Wife?
