Back in the 70's i had a colinear clr-2,very good antenna about 19' tall
with 3, 9' radials,excellent recieve and transmit,wish i could find
another one.
i had a starduster,good antenna, i didn't like the way it mounted,than
after that i got a shakespeare 18' fiberglass something like the
antron,lost a lot of signals compared to the starduster.also had a super
scanner by antenna specialist,it was 3 vertical elements, you rotate the
signal and not the antenna,not bad,but missed signals compared to the
other antennas. i always wanted to try the astro plane antenna, they
still make them.or the sirio, the one that looks like it's upside down.
the antenna i have now is the i max 2000.not bad i guess, i just want to
try something else.

I've been very satisfied with Jay's ground plane.
