This is a joke, right?
Not exactly - just a dash of Aquarian humor.
I am serious with the question. Will "scaling it" for a bottom band of
say 108 mhz make it "less efficent" at higher band?
If a uhf discone is designed to cover 400-500 MHz, for instance,
when you scale it to a vhf center frequency of 108 MHz, it will
cover approximately 96-120 MHz.
