    Do pilots and control towers try to out - do each other in a "let's see how fast I can talk" competition?

    It would be interesting (and possibly more relevant) to give S meter readings where possible for this against band specific dipoles.Without comparing it to something else it's not possible to tell if it's any good or not.After all up that high with near perfect all round visibility a coat hanger would work reasonably well.🙂

    A baking tray ground plane does make a repeatably measurable difference for me using this indoors. I have proven this to myself on numerous occasions now and seeing as I am the only person I need to prove this too, I am quite ok with that.

    I have the mobile version on a biscuit tin on the window sill but watched this because I wanted to see if would be worth getting the desktop version to put in the loft. As the base is magnetic I might still stand it on a biscuit tin of only to make it more stable.

    if you dont have a metal desk... you can always use a quality street or roses tin on the window sill... we used to do that all the time.

    I bought one of those from Waters and Stanton about twenty years ago (the magnetic desktop version) and maybe I got unlucky but was a waste of money and worse than a standard Uniden rubber duck! Deaf as a post and noisy with it! I await your video with baited breath.

    I got this antenna in my room we are in high ground I put a biscuit tin to act as a ground plain on Airband I get over 100 miles plus from south London and all the local airfields around the south east Essex and Hertfordshire

    I got this antenna and put it on the loft. I was amazed to see I was able to get amateur radio broadcast chat from the USA and Canada on a basic Uniden Bearcat UBC355CLt on 145.690. I'm in Glasgow Scotland , Superb!

    Great video and great antenna Lewis. Was also good to hear two of my locals on both of my local sota's.

    I have the other magmount version without the radials and cone, it’s surprisingly quite good even indoors. Even better static mobile with it on my van roof. Looking forward to see what yours pulls in 👍🏼

    Interesting aerial, suitable for the home office so you can listen while you work.

    Would be interesting too see how this performs for things like ADS-B and AIS while using it outdoors

    I have two of these both used with a RSPdx connected to input C of said SDR receiver for frequencies above 50Mhz.

    The last catch was humorous. I better pissoff because it's almost teatime. LoL.

    I had their original discone some years back. It worked and matched to a number of bands, but then a 50 ohm resistor would also give a good match. Its amazing the difference that a real antenna made....
