“Your quad cannot process signals that it doesn’t receive. Gain isn’t magic.”

That is exactly right, back to fine tuning for the standing wave ratio and polarity.

Man, I’ve been working really hard at not busting your chops here, but seriously, Standing Wave Ratio??!!

Has not dung to do with the efficiency of a receiving antenna.

YOU are the reason that the frequency spectrum should be regulated.

The “slice” of RF that you do have access to is amazing in it’s ability to support long range signal propogation during appropriate atmospheric conditions, and you boast publicly about your illegal radio set up, and spew ignorance and misinformation to support the idea that you should be able to trash up the rest of the radio spectrum.

Your rig transmits AT LEAST 50 WATTS of off-channel 3rd order harmonics, and you lecture here about the quality components that make up your Chinese or Taiwanese made Galaxy and SWR.

LOL @ you.
