I never explained why one antenna outperforms another. I just posted the numbers. You can draw your own explanation. Oh sure I supose the 31" S- METER really proves the accuracy of the test better than using Smith charts LOL. How do you calculate antenna gain with a smith chart? From personal experience, the longer antenna -seems- to work better. Maybe it's the more broadbanded part, maybe it's the power handling capability without frying a load coil, or both. What sucks is the tree pruning, with the long one. To answer the OP, forget the twin talkers, they're too close to each other. As a rule they do, I think Tnom was just trying to point out that the construction is also important. |
