Hello Shockwave,

I havnt checked into "things",

But sounds to me you are on to something.

wasnt the max gain a 2el can produce with a director/radiator combination?
Looking at the "body" of the car we know if we place the mobile antenna at the back of the car the maximum field goes forward.

With the director/radiator setup you have and the advantage of the "body" and the max gain combination.

If maximum gain in a forward direction is what one is looking for then it sounds to me like a good plan to futher investigate...if only we had some more time lol.

You migth consider too look into "c-pole" antenna aswell..perhaps thats the way to go.

Kind regards,
