10 meter base antenna

[Straightshooter58]

out of these 2..which is the better 10 meter vertical base antenna?
#1. SPT-500 Hy-Gain Penetrator
or
#2. Hustler G-2537 HF Monoband
I only have room for one..and I want the best one out of these two! Thank You.

I'd go with the spt500. They are both 5/8 ground planes....the hustler is a .64 but it's close enough.

The reason I say the spt500 is the power rating. The hustler is rated for 600 watts pep. If an aluminum antenna will only take 600 pep they used some really cheap shit to build the matching network.

Are you looking for local talking only? If you are planning on working dx then I would build a dipole and have it in an inverted V format. This will be much quieter than the vertical
