Default 75 meter hamstick vs low dipole

So I can say that a phased hamstick vertical on 80m with a poor ground is
also about 20db down from a full size dipole at 40’.

It all makes good sense. The best 75m mobile antennas
are about 10 dB down from a 1/2WL dipole. The hamstick
is about 10 dB down from the best 75m mobile antennas.
