[TowerTalk] JK Navassa antenna

[Kelly Taylor]

i would disagree: the dBi numbers seem in line with other trapless 2-el designs, such as the C3 or XR3.

They’d be way high if they were quoted as dBd numbers, but take off the, what, 2.4 dB, to get to dBd and 4 dB and change sounds reasonable. At least, way more reasonable than, say, 8 dBd that some three-element trapped tribanders pretend to have...
