This is a great omnidirectional antenna. This morning at 09:20 UTC I was able to make contact with 41HS393 with an S8 signal report. The DX monitor was receiving me in Australia, South America & Eastern United States. A great antenna with a wide capture area. Switching over to my 6 band 5 element quad resulted in a 1-2 S-unit increase in my signal and a bit stronger audio.
Thanks for the QSO Arthur.
