Hi TT'ers,
I am a member of the W1HP Philips Medical ARC -- ex. HP Medical ARC -- in
Andover, MA. For ten years we have been using a homebrew 3-el. 6M antenna,
boom length 66", calculated gain from YO ~5½ dBd for Field Day. (It's on a 20
foot push up pole -- or "tower" -- just to keep this on target...)
We would like to improve this antenna -- and I don't want to homebrew another
one. What are your suggestions and recommendations for a new antenna. Here
are the specs:
a.. 4 or 5 elements
b.. lightweight
c.. easy to assemble
d.. easy to transport -- probably would make a good rover antenna
e.. breaks down to be easy to store (not much room in the W1HP shack)
I look forward to your input.
