[Mobile-Portable] Mobile Antenna on Truck

[Jim Miller]

I have found the same thing.  No problems with the super resonators AND they
have about double the bandwidth without retuning, a major improvement on 75
meters.

    Interesting,  I have been using the super resonators for over 25 years
and have found the opposite to be true. Also, the Supers have greater
coverage.

Jim,

The Hustler resonators also work, but buy the low power versions.  For
years, the conventional wisdom was to buy the high power resonators because
it was assumed they were less lossy.  Jerry Sevick, W2FMI, did an analysis
of the Hustler coils, and discovered that the low power coils were less
lossy and more efficient.  Unfortunately, I don't think he ever published
his conclusions.

There are also a wide variety of screwdrivers, some of which are a bit more
pleasing to the eye.
