Bill,
If you get a wild burning desire to try an 80 meter Hamstick, because you haven't before, let me save you the purchase and shipping price. They do work, but not very well at all. Neither will the other brands of the same type, including MFJ's. Almost any other type of antenna will do as ~least~ as good and in most cases, better. The 160 meter version of a Hamstick type antenna is one of the cheapest, long, thin dummy loads I've ever seen. No fluids to find and buy, fairly unobtrusive, and certainly different. And it can be painted in many different colors to match your vehicle! Although I haven't seen one specifically for 60 meters, and considering the power requirements for those frequencies, you could probably run legal limit with no problems at all. 'Doc |
