<<<Many contesters spend tens of thousands on towers
and antennas to be able to work one more layer of weak
stations underneath the noise. The Orion's ability to
dig these stations out in the presence of strong
signals is a bargain. Even a 4-stack can't do that!>>>
K5UJ responded "What's implied here, I imagine
unintentionally, is that if you get an Orion, you can
do without really excellent antennas."
I beg to differ on your interpretation Rob. What's
implied here is that in the context of big contest
stations and the money spent to be competitive, the
investment in an Orion is quite cost effective.
