This deserves a specific response. I apologize if it sounds like I'm picking on you but this is ridiculous. Are you saying the engineers who worked on this antenna decided to add another 40 feet of tubing (4 radials and radiator length) plus a loop just to place a unity gain 1/2 wave 8 feet higher in the air? Why not just buy a 10 foot pole and the A99 and be ahead of the game with this logic? I can see the ads now. Buy our special 8 foot pole for use with the A99 and add 2 db as it lowers your TOA and elevates the 1/2 wave. Please make sense.
