A couple of those antennas are thoroughly tested in the N0AX and K7LXC
tribander comparison report. These were actual on-the-air measurements of 8
different triband antennas. The over 60-page report is available for $15.00 +
s/h from Champion Radio Products (hppt://www.championradio.com or
888-833-3104). It should answer most of your questions.
