Hello, Dave

The problem would be SWR with the requisite bandwidth. Of course, if anyone
has any of those old Heathkit Cantennas


Or a discone. That's one of the preferred commercial antennas for SS
on VHF/UHF. SWR isn't flat but it's low over a 10:1 range of spectrum.
The only problem is the poor gain. I wonder if anyone has ever tried
to build a phased discone array.....
