Is this the 20 meter monobander at W6EEN that Lew McCoy talks about in
his book "Lew McCoy Talks About Antennas"? I always thought the
comparison between an LPDA and a 20 meter monobander was unfair enough,
but to compare a 60 foot 6 element monobander at 105 feet to a 30 foot
LPDA at 60 is completely ridiculous.
