Anyone use the Patriot 12ft loaded half-wave base?
Just curious to see if anyone has ever tried this inexpensive antenna. If so, what were your impressions of it? It seems like a good choice if you have tight quarters and can't go as high as a full 5/8 wave.
A friend of mine has one on a 40 foot tower and has talked all over the world and she runs 400 watts to it and the swr is 1.2
and she loves it, so I wont call it pure junk!
you might as well use a 102 inch ss whip or a francis amazer just use a vertical truck mirror mount to a couple section of antenna mast works great and is cheap to damn near out performed the a 99 on the recieve
