Indeed. At the end of the day its a single element 1/2 wave vertical antenna. Any differences will not be of any note in the real world.

Always makes me laugh when someone talks about one antenna having an extra 1-2dBi over another like it'll make S1 into S9+. It won't even make it any more than S1.

Its very hard to make a vertical antenna for 11m that can beat a simple dipole for gain.
