I have experience with numerous antennas. Personally, a good dipole is best for anything in the shortwave bands, but I must admit that the old Antron 99 vertical is a great stick for punching out in the 10 and 11 meter bands.

73's.

I agree, nothing beats a good dipole. Except maybe three aces and a good tower mounted Yagi.

True enough. But I'll put my refurbished Super Penetrator 500 up against anybody's Antron.

73's back at ya. I'm QRT and standing by.     =;^)

Fine antenna, that. The A99 works much, MUCH better with the ground plane kit though.
