Hi Lew,

Are you saying the Uni-hat has some property or design attribute that 
improve efficiency over any other top loaded antenna of similar 
dimensions?

If so, can you describe how that violation of the laws of 
electromagnetics is accomplished?

I have no doubt it beats your 60 foot high 180 foot long dipole 
(dimensions from page 27 of your Unihat review) some of the time, my 
question is do you believe it is better than any other properly 
constructed top loaded antenna of the same dimensions?

Do you honestly believe folding the skirt wires or adding a coil at 
the bottom reduces ground loss, as you claimed in your review?
