New antenna ?

[Grogan]

Well it's cold in the North East and My SWR went to 4:1 after the latest snow storm. Got coax and have been looking at vertical antennas for some time. Maby it's been blowing and something changed. I have an IMAX 2000. Was looking at a few Verticals.....Vote and a few thoughts may help.

i voted other . based on the fact couple ones ya listed may or may not stand up to wind
either. i gotta sirio 2016 thats been up since 09 and love it. should i encounter an
issue rest assured i will get another one. as for my OTHER pick id choose a sirio m-400
thier light weight ,affordable, and probaly almost as good as a bigger antenna

Went with something not on my list. Bought the Sirio Tornado 27 5/8 27 - 30 Mhz Tunable 10m & CB Base Antenna . Bought it to try it price was right. and something a ittle different. I still have a DX-CC to put up when the snow thaws waiting cause I want to do it right!

Performance wise go the gainmaster.No cmc problems, wide bandwidth and good clean pattern .
