So I take it there's no going back to the old 88, and that it was the one which you were using for your test readings?
Will you be able to duplicate the receiver / S-meter with the other 88?

I imagine you have a few weak contacts you are somewhat familiar with which will give you an idea of the general comparison between antennas...?

There will always be another 751A, that one was priced particularly friendly due, I'm sure, to the fear of mechanical issues. I know I wouldn't have given it another thought if I hadn't already dealt with a loose VCO/VFO knob and knew how easily it can be tightened.

Good luck with the Magnum 'DF', perhaps you can beef it up to reliable condition.
