Rick,

You must have a bad hair day!! If I get great reports and I'm happy with my
antenna, are you telling me I shouldn't be?
Think about it...

I've noticed whenever someone is talking about his antenna, ANY antenna, he
always is pleased with it's performance.  Maybe due to the fact that others
give him good signal reports.  i.e. Over and over on this reflector you will
see someone say he has a certain antenna, up so high, and it is working
great for him.  
It is only when the ham has TWO antennas available to him simultaneously
that he is able to say that first antenna that he THOUGHT was so good,
really wasn't.
Have you ever had someone say to you, "That antenna of yours is doing a
great job for you today." ?? 
Ask him how he knows?
Think about it........
