[Mobile-Portable] ANTENNA COMPARISON

Wed, 13 Feb 2002 11:36:54 -0600

I compared my homebrew 80-10m screwdriver antenna against a
Lakeland's BugCatcher I had previously to that and no ears
could tell the difference on 20 thru 80m. This was reports
from stations both stateside and DX.

With the hamstick variety not a big difference on the higher
bands 10-20m, but big difference on 30-80m, sometimes
several s-units.

This is close to the Shoot-out's findings.
