I think any G5RV would outperform the Burp & Wobble Fooled dipole. I just put up an 80 meter Delta Loop from The Radio Works. Last night when 20 meters was dead on my windom and Gap I was hearing 5x7 signals on the delta loop. It really performs well on all bands and I can use it effectively on 160 at half power. I am going to get another one and phase them for more FB and gain. Nice thing is that the background noise on 80 meters is cut by 2-3 S units compared to a dipole. You don't need a lot of horizontal space either so people with small lots can have a great signal. ===== Carl H.
