Can anyone comment on the performance of the High Sierra HS-1800/Pro antenna used as a base antenna? Due to my area/neighbors, etc..., this is probably the route I'm going to go. I'm just curious if anyone has any experience using this antenna for their home and it's performance as such. Thanks! I think you would be far better off to get the Hi-Q. Butch KF5DE |

I had both. Stuck with the High Sierra. The Hi-Q is *such* a pain to
mount to anything. On May 10, 5:20 pm, Butch Magee wrote: NotMe wrote: Can anyone comment on the performance of the High Sierra HS-1800/Pro antenna used as a base antenna?

And even better if you can extend the lower section (~2" diameter
tube). More metal=better, but more metal underneath the coil=mo' better. You may want to try replacing the whip with a longer one if you are going to use it as a base station. Jimmie |
