Does any antenna manufacture make a 6 Meter Glass Mount Antenna? If
so,please let me know, I'm looking for one.

Thanks, N1RZB

Just installed a dual band glassmount to allow mounting a UHV-6 for the HF/6M
rig....set up the G/M with the Alinco dual bander, checked it with the antenna
analyzer to tweak it to the fav repeaters. Not very happy with it, even w/low
SWR (as many have noted...a dummy load has low SWR!). Previous antenna was a
Comet SB-15 which worked wonderfully....the glassmount is quite poor compared
to that antenna. I'll probably add a diplexer to use the UHV-6 instead of the
G/M and/or reinstall the SB15. A 6M antenna would be even worse, I would
imagine, as coupling it would take a larger mount. My personal opinion? Try
for another mounting method. However, if you find a G/M 6M antenna, hope your
experience is better than mine.

Cheers!
A
