[50mhz] dumb question!

[Chris Boone]

NMO 150 radiates better than NMO 50 on 6m...wider bandwidth too! Also
Maxrad/Laird now has a WideBand model for 10m as well as 6m that covers the
entire band and then some...with a 66in whip and a short coil (shorter than
the older Maxrad that had a 4 ft rod then the whip)....BTW I can get them
for dealer plus 20% for hams!! (also shipping and sales tax needed...sorry)

(Been there, got the T shirt in the mid 70s)
