[TowerTalk] "Superloop" & other Field Day antennas

[john at kk9a.com]

You could use a DX Blaster cage dipole with a manufacture's claim of 5dbd 
gain.  Their website  http://dxblaster.com suggests many operators 
experience 2"s" units of gain or 12 db.

Gang-

I've googled this, and have no real answer, so, I turn to the real
knowledge base of the hobby--you guys!

We are planning on a FD effort, with a local club this year, and are
considering antennas.  We are using available trees in the 40-50' range, 
and
maybe a simple push up pole or 2. No tower, no yagi's.  All wire.

I want something with a bit of gain.
