Henry, I didn't mean to suggest every antenna they make has 100% accurate specifications. My statement was that in general they are very accurate. When I see they admit their Starduster, Top one, and dipole all have 0 db gain that suggests honesty to me. Solarcon has taken an antenna with the same gain and claimed over 9 dbi at one time. I am in agreement that they missed the boat on the beam antenna but we are talking about two models they make out of over 50. Can anyone think of another manufacturer of 11 meter antennas that is publishing more accurate gain figures? I don't think I can. As much as I like working with this company, if you find a mistake, I sure am not going to lie or cover it up on anyone's behalf.
