The best way to use the RBN for antenna tests is A/B testing of two
different ones. Even then, you will need to average a number of
alternations before you get a persuasive answer. Don't forget to QSY at
least 500Hz between test transmissions, or else the target Skimmer won't
spot you again until 10 minutes have passed.
