Nice article. I read Spectra so this is a good comparison. It would be nice to have one of those $20K Analyzers, wouldn't it? Yep, carrying around an extra 25 pounds and 2 cubic feet of space not to mention the power draw.
Oh, well. If someone can borrow one and analyze and publish, I say good on 'em.
It was $60k
OP: It's not a digital antenna, its just an agnostic antenna. Also, rule #1 in radio of any kind, and the hams here will back this up: There is NO substitution for height.
Getting the antenna away from the RV and all the noise generated within (like allot of LED's) can often make all the difference in reception. If you INSIST on installing a Jack, at least get one that can be mounted on the mast that you can get away from the coach and up in the air where where it belongs.
