[SixClub] Best Mobile 6M Antennas?

[Chris Boone]

A gain antenna on 6 will have to be a 1/2wave or taller. (108inches
minimum)......A 5/8wave will be about 150 inches (remember 6 is 3 times
longer in wavelength than 2mtrs!!!)....Gain mobile antennas is not easily
done on 6 and not worth the effort.
Power antennas have connection issues between the joints as they rise and
fall....not good for transmit....ok for AM broadcast....

What are the best 6M antennas?

I am mostly interested to learn about those with
some gain.

Also, has anyone adapted a power antenna for a car to
use as a 6M mobile antenna - one that "disappears" so
crooks & vandals don't mess with it?
