Does anybody have more info?

You do. What's your operating frequency range.
Why do you keep it top secret?


Ahhh...it's in the subject line!

sorry,

Thank you for this tentative...
So lets keep on 2m for the simplicity.
I know that you do not put a vertical dipole on a roof.
You put it on a mast, and this mast (if small) can be on (side of) car
when on halt...
The link budget will change by the fact that the dipole will be
higher. (easy to take in account in a formula like Eggli-Mod for
example). But there should be also a difference in Antenna Gain.
That's what I'm looking for!
