Hi Al,

I have two. They do work and their performance is no different than
and other end fed halfwave, as expected and as modeled. Also side by
side with monoband plumber specials(1/2 cu pipe designs) it is a
match, as in no difference. One I use for semiportable ops as it's
dual band and easy to mount up on a portable tripod and 15ft of
masting.

As long a the copper pipe one is made correctly and has a choke

good, etc. And you don't mind the narrow band width.

Your right, a 1/2 wave is a 1/2 is a 1/2 wave. All have 0 dBd.
