[TowerTalk] Vertical question

[Kirk Kleinschmidt]

Not any VE, just the interesting ones, those on the frontier or, perhaps, those in Zone 2. :)
All non-WKNA call signs benefit from a decent boost in antenna performance, except during the ARRL DX contests, when rare states get the boost, especially the obvious ones such as ND0ND, WY7WY, WV8WV, etc.
P5? Gotta be 40-50 dB, at least!

if VE is worth 10-20 dB, what is P5 worth?
