Default Supposed comparison of Mobile HF Antennas in November QST


"Michael Coslo" wrote in message I've been pleased so far.
I worked some CA QSO party from the middle of
PA on 20 meters with it, and all I could hear I could work (100 watts)


While you can not work a station if you can not hear it, that is no way to
compair an antenna. I have an off center fed antenna up 45 feet and a
tribander up 57 feet. I can hear more on the beam than I can on the OCF .
I can probably work all I can hear on either antenna. It is I just hear
beter on the beam on the bands it is cut for.
