Thanks Don. Very good video and impressive demonstration of both antennas in action.
I have no doubt that several members, here in the Antenna section, will get a kick at your work in producing these comparisons videos.
At the bottom of my posts, in the signature area, is a link to a list where I once upon a time made some "corny" videos of what I was doing trying to test my ideas on comparing a bunch of vertical monopole CB antennas I had accumulated.
In looking back, I don't know if I just had a zeal for comparing antennas and wondering how they worked, that is the way it all started for me. Or, if it was my being able to understand and produce little videos to help demonstrate what I was trying to do with the new technology. And baring to all the many mistakes I made in the process back in a time that seems like - way back to a bunch of like minded guys on this forum.
Fact is I'm still discussing related ideas about this very topic, comparing antenna performance with some of my favorite folks in the first thread in the "Sticky Threads" section at the top of the WWDX, CB Antennas at the top of the front page.
Don, please come join us. I need some help. Some of these guys are also heavy into "fox hunting," I think.............if I recall correctly.
I'm 84 and these young guys have the advantage over me sometimes, while I'm trying to remember how to spell "I" or is it "eye."
