Quoting from the article: "If Comet had claimed that the CHA-250B
was a world-beating miracle antenna, we would have blasted it with
both barrels. Comet doesn't make such claims, however. Comet's
literature merely states that the antenna will radiate a signal
and provide a low SWR on all bands without the use of radials.
In this respect, the CHA-250B performs as advertised. It is neither
a miracle nor a fraud." (The article says it's about equal to a
mobile whip antenna.)


At least Comet is being honest in its claims.
