Isotron Limited Space Antennas
 
I have been contemplating setting up an Isotron 160 meter limited space
antenna. Has anyone on the group used one, and what are their opinions of
their results. Basically, I am somewhat skeptical but would like to hear from
others.

Hey Phil,

Don't have one yet myself, but I've been considering picking one up
due to the antenna restrictions I chose to live under. Here are the
opinions of some folks that seem quite happy with the Isotron
antennas:

If you do in fact buy one, let us know how it works out for you.

Cheers,

The Isotron should be your last resort. A better plan would be to use a
tree and put up a wire
such as one of the 1/4 wave slopers. If you don't have a tree there are
still alternatives for say a 25 by 25 space. E-mail me directly and I'll
give you details.
