NB, what happened to your testing idea where you were going to prove beyond all doubt that the Vector does not radiate from the bottom radial cone?

Have you ever used your testing idea to prove the bottom of the Vector doesn't radiate on your Penetrator. 5/8 waves are commonly said not to radiate from the bottom 1/8 wave due to cancellation. If your test can prove that effectively and you can demonstrate it on a video using your Penetrator, then the Vector results might be a lot more reliable in the minds of those that believe differently, assuming that you are right of course.

Its been a while now, what's the delay?

IMO, the GM is void of TVI type problems at my location, it's very broad banded, easy to install, and has a very small foot print. As far as the gain compared to my other CB vertical antennas, it's about as good as any of the others I have.

How say you?
