Well, my Wellbrook might work as well yours, as I too have worked CE/K7CA with
mine on 160 from the Black Hole of KL7. More than once as well.
For me the magic isn't directional gain, it's the improved S/N and the ability
to null local single point QRN.
If I were able to extend a Beverage or three I'd do so. Unfortunately the city
snow plows would allow none of that.
