[TowerTalk] Antenna comparisons

[Allen R. Brier]

My main interests are Contesting and DXing. I am looking for the best
performance in terms of gain. My favorite band is 10 meters (of course, when
there are spots!) I am looking for an antenna that will cover 20-10
including the WARC bands. I am undecided what I will use for 30/40 meters.
What other parameters should I include?

This is an impossible question to answer unless you provide us with what
your operating requirements and expectations are.

Each of these antennas will outperform the others in specific areas.
