Why is it a 10K world?(mobile)

Chris, I got involved in this thread and others because I thought Dan was getting a bad wrap. He has made some improvements in his Coily antennas so I was going to compare it to Kale's 10K antennas.

Looking at both of them Kale's is lighter and parts can be easily unscrewed and replaced. Kale is using a special grease to keep water intrusion to a minimum.

Dan's insulator is thicker so it may take a little more power. More than I will ever try I am sure. Dan's is welded and a little heavier. Dan has a water drain whole on his insulator. The Coily shaft is a little thinner.

I believe that both are building a good quality antenna at a fair price.

Will these antennas work for everyone, probably not. But they certainly are worth looking at for most applications. They both offer a lifetime warranty. Hey if anyone out their has one of these antennas and it has failed Kale will send you new part(s) and Dan a new antenna so your are safe there to the best of my knowledge.

cbshack, I think me and Dan are both using Delrin for insulator material. I talked to Ghost Rider in Florida a while back. He is running AC class and said at 100 KW, thats right, 100 KW he can't melt Delrin. He said regular plastic will melt under RF power. No more power than Dan and I am running, neither one of us will have to worry about burning up the insulator on either antenna. Kale

Hey Mr. Coil how much are your antenna's?
There only $65.00 bucks,I was at the pilot yesterday getting gas and they wanted 60.00 bucks for them antennas they have on the shelf man talk about a rip...anyway 73ss and love them crazy clowns...peace coily..
 
I have a 10k,102 steel whip and also a wilson 5000 for use on my mobile.After hearing for years that a 10K or wilson would out do a whip so i bought em. All i can say is that they look really good in my closet because neither of them work as good as the steel whip.Also.....why do i hear that people have a hard time tuning their wips?I have had whips on all of my mobile setups and i have never had any of them show higher than 1.4 from 1 thru 40.Just remember,when it comes to antennas ground is everything!

Well over all the years i have been doing the antenna thing,i have never been able to get a great match with a whip and then when i drove around the match would even get worse,on the center of my saburban the whip tunes around 1.2.1 sitting still and un-adjustable and That's really fine when just running stock or a few hundred and sitting still, when i drive around the whip swr would swing 1.5.1 -1.8.1! I can get a coil to tune also 1.2.1 or lower and hold that when driving around and in the middle of the roof.now on the back of my saburban i can get a perfectly flat 1.0.1- 1.1.1 mfj all day, driving or sitting, with no movement on swr.When i have tried to use a whip on the back it will not go under 1.4.1-1.5.1 and when driving might as well just talk out the coax. The whip needs a good ground to work properly you are correct on that point and that's why it tunes well in the middle and not as well when intruduced to less ground near the back.with all that said i have seen time and time agian that a coil can beat a whip and have people who have seen gains in a true real world 1 db output over a steel whip with increased cleaner audio,there will always be the guys who belive the whip has to work better, and that's mosty due to what the books say and the book are not always right,i have done long range tests at 18 miles and 40+ miles with great results proving a coil built right with correctly spaced coils, and shaft hieght will give you a far better advantage.I was at rat shack last week and there 102" whips are 19.99 each.A good coil is onle 60-65 bucks, If setup right,and the coil antenna is tuned and with good counterpoise it will give you overall better output and only be 6.6 feet high.\
I personally cannot run a whip i won't chance my equipment :cry: to the wavering reflection patterns, and i don't like hitting overpasses and them florecent light are scary also :D Just my 10 cents worth..73sss ....Dan

King Mudduck, which 10K did you have and what kind of vehicle was you mounting it on. The radiating pattern of the 102 and a coil antenna is altogether different. I market 6 different length shafts and it is important which one you was working with. Kale
