Now, this is the IMPORTANT PART and the secret of it's success. YOU
MOUNT THE LOWER HORIZONTAL SECTION OF THE LETTER "C" SO THAT IT IS 24
INCHES OFF THE GROUND. This is extremely important because it give is
a very low angle or radiation.

I hope you don't believe this.... The *vertical* section provides the
low angle of radiation...All you are doing is running a perverted
center fed1/2 vertical...

ALSO IMPORTANT. Construct this antenna with the largest gauge of
stranded wire you can find. Go to the local hardware store and buy the
thickest stranded wire you can get. Or, you can also use 1/8 or 3/8
copper tubing. You want to have as much surface area as possible

I hope you don't believe this either....You could make that out of 18
gauge wire, and likely see little or no difference from copper tube..

I won't comment much on the last two "great" antennas..... Seems to
rile people up, when I provide negative feedback on their weapons
of choice...
