![]() I have a home brew Carolina Windom that I have pruned for 80 meters. I have compared it with a G5RV and a full size inverted V for 80 meters. I like to chase 80 meter DX and I am in Southern California. The Windom gets much better reports than the G5RV on both 80 & 40 those are the only bands I checked and I can find little difference between it and the full size inverted V. Some times the inverted V will be better by one s unit then the Windom will be but for DX the Windom always seems better and I get very good reports out of the Pacific. I think different antennas work differently at each QTH and only experimenting will reveal whats best for you. ================================== If you rotate the directions of all the antennas you will get a completely different set of results and draw a different set of conclusions. Which is correct? ---- Reg. |
