At least until someone proves me wrong.Hey it was good enough for Andy and Mr. One Bullet AKA Barny.
Seriously there are a lot of good antennas out there but when height is not a problem its hard to beat a 102.
The only disadvantage I have noticed over the years is they lay down to much when going down the road.
Some people tie them with monofilament but I never have.
Never had a manufacturer give me an antenna so I have no axe to grind.I have run a lot of coils and have been dissappointed.
I have heard people claim they cant get 102s to tune.
Never had that problem.Always get 1.1
Mine is very broadbanded and I can go very low or very high with a quick addition of a three inch shaft or removing it.I am trying out one of the top five builders comp version coil that I havent run before and will let you know how I like it.Its almost as long as my 102SS.73
