WHO IS USING WHAT AND WHY.. WHAT'S WORKING >KLM? M-SQUARED? HY-GAIN ETC ETC.. Dennis for what it is worth I had the Hygain sat antenna set and my buddy down the road had the KLM's. Get the KLM's better build and polarization switch worked much better and did not change in the rain. The hygain's I had were useless when wet the SWR when up above 3:1. I also have m^2 hf antennas and they are great electrically but only so so mechnically. 73 Bill AA5ZQ ------------------------------ End of Ham-Space Digest V94 #139 ******************************
