Here I'm comparing my Gain Master to my Marconi 7x, with both on top of 44' masts

Here is my Gain Master @ 64' and my Marconi 7x @ 52'. I have about 2.5' more I can raise the GM up to right at 67', but my guy ropes are a little short. I figured them too short in my planning.

I will be sending my Signal Reports along soon and my new videos for 03/04/11 are already posted on my YouTube channel.

Now I'm off to change the ground plane setup on my Marconi 7x, with 7 x 102" whips slanted down. Which ever setup shows the best performance if any, I will then test a shortened radiator with a top hat for comparison with the Gain Master using the best GPK on the M7x.

I think then I'll stop testing and build me a beam for my mount out back, and see if I can get it up about 35' on the horizontal.
