I've got a short summary of three 20th century CA
shootouts on my web page at: www.w5dxp.com/shootout.htm
What is it that you are looking for?

Your website answers my question. I was looking for comparisons
between the various antenna designs. Big coils and top hats win, knew
that already, but nice to see the dB figures.


I don't see any information at that web site about the type of vehicle.
Since the vehicle radiates an amount comparable to the antenna, it can
have a profound effect on the overall field strength. Were all those
antennas mounted on the same type of vehicle?
