Bill,
If you are going to base everything on perceived advantage then you
must include categories for "towers taller than x feet," "antennas
with gain > 2.1 dBi," "antennas with gain > 6 dBd," etc.
I will continue to argue that gain antenna are an even more significant
advantage than SOmR. If they weren't why would contesters not bypass
the big antennas and do SO2R?
If you want to separate significant advantages, do them all or do none.
Be consistent.
