[SixClub] best 6 meter vertical

[Bill Bailey KG4NZR]

The MFJ, while it does the job, is poorly designed.  The 6-meter resonator 
has a weak spot and breaks easily.  After slightly more than a year, I am on 
my third 6-meter resonator.  The first broke during installation and 
Hurricane Charley claimed the second.

My choice is the Diamond DPGH62

I also have a MFJ 1738 <52/146/222/440> that I bought for portable
operations http://ka5cvh.com/photos/thumbnails.php?album=8.  It, the
Diamond V2000A, and the Comet GP-15 are in my opinion, poor
substitutes for a real antenna on 50 MHz but can serve a need if you
have limited space etc.

YMMV
