I'm practical.
The point of all these antennas is to do something on the cheap to get you on air. I just think the flowerpot is simpler and more practical.
G5RV, yep they are cheap and simple but consider what the old blokes used to do with a doublet? Not going anywhere near using twin lead for feedline but for the man that wants an antenna to do everything then I advocate the doublet.
What say ye?
