[TowerTalk] step ir vs zero five

[Richard Solomon]

That's because at frequencies above 14 MHZ, it makes a nice cloud
warmer. The higher the
frequency, the warmer the clouds get.

Inside that distance equal or worse than my ladder line fed 130' doublet dipole up 50'. For dxing on 40 the zero five was usually 2-3 db better than the dipole and sometimes even more. It also does very well on 60M, 15M.. fair on 20.All other band don't get excited, It's a glorified dummy load.
