What antenna is BEST???? Very good question. I worked for a few years with Al Henderson ex K6AJ now a SK.He made antennas for the navy and a few other users. Most were verticals that would tune t
Stuart you point is well taken. Al's antennas were at best in the most hostile environment.The antenna was made from coiled copper strip and then with a motor, it was tuned as a 1/4 wave on whatever
Mike: See Stewart's reply. Any antenna that is shipboard is in a very hostile environment. The nitrogen kept things dry and not corroding. Might keep in mind all TV stations havenitrogen in their

I have been following this thread for a bit and I'd like to add a comment. I have been using CQRlog for some time now and it does support the Eagle. The support is not fully tested as yet, but it w
Please not you doNOT have an Omni VI+, you have an Amni VI rev3 which is equivalent to a VI+ but is still a VI. The VI+ is a 564 and yours is a 563. 73 Clayton N4EV On Friday, March 14, 2014 2:01 PM
Sir: I too have both. The 564 is the VI+ while the 563 no mater what revision, is a VI. You need to get the right info for the guys at TenTec. They are the same as far as the electronics go, but yo
