Default J_Pole Trials and Tribulations

Maybe reflected power off of nearby objects is the cause of poor

roof overhead and many, many cross braces, typical of pre-fab trusses.
Anyway, I am satisfied with the Arrow end fed antenna in the attic.
But, I am disappointed with my home made J-Poles. Maybe I will try a
little SO239 1/4 wave, just to see if there is any difference.


I'm wondering if you are using a common mode choke? Also what type of
mast are you using to support the antenna?
