If the antenna is at 36 feet, why are you using 100 feet of coax for
the measurement?  Why not use 50 feet or calibrate out the losses and
present true "at the antenna" measurements?

> The JK Navassa-5 comes pre-drilled, pre-cuts tips from the factory. The user just needs to assemble the antenna. These antennas are made of the best quality hardware and rated heavy-duty. There are many other quality manufacturers in the Yagi antenna space and the Hams are left to some good choices. If you like the JK construction with machined saddles, and quality hardware, including the “mast plate" all available for $1185 compared to others, then you will buy this antenna. The JK construction and mechanical robustness speaks for itself and folks that have it will speak to it.
