Hi Group, Many have asked what's a Gizmotchy, so I thought I'd provide the url. So everyone can see for themselves. -At the present I have (6) 2 mtr models, 4 elements each, 1500 watt gama matches. F

Am I the only one here who feels that making 1KW and 5KW antennas primarily for CBers to use illegally is not okay? And before anyone says they can be used at legal power, why then the need for 5 KW

Hi Mike -- totally agree. I wonder if anyone has modeled one of these things? If it's really both horizontally and vertically polarized (not circular) then it has to be poorer that a similar number o

Quite likely true, but then the TH antenna series wasn't designed for illegal CB operation either, and this one is. The power rating and user feedback state that clearly. The TH is a ham band antenna

Anything that's not elliptically/circularly polarized is just linearly polarized, and the "ratio" of vertical to horizontal response just depends on the tilt of the elements with respect to horizont

For some silly reason, it is an tenna of choice for CB'ers. Don't ask me why! I believe someone made comment about the need for 5kw gamma on the antenna and the 6 meter antenna came to mind, coupled

Hi Dan, You said this far better that I did! Thanks for the better explanation. For the record, I used a 2M yagi at 45° for a few years to "optimize" (compromise?) both SSB and FM. Worked. Turned out

Andre, But that is exactly the point. Illegal is illegal and the fact that others - hams or manufacturers - are also doing that which is illegal does not make it okay. We are supposed to be self-poli

I operated one of these & learned polarization shift on DX signals. While on "horizontal" polarization, you'd see a dip in signal strength. If you switched to "vertical" polarization at the null, the

I run only 200 watts on 30m. My amp can only do 600 watts CW anyway. In fact most times I run 100 watts because the input slug of the amp is not really tuned for 30 (or 17, or 12). But I do crack pil

Do you think a ham could be more competitive in a pile up during one of those vertically polarized peaks by switching in a vertically polarized gain antenna? _________________________________________
