I can't tell the difference in quality or user friendly features. Both talk about the same.

What is a liberty graphite antenna??
Several years ago President cam out with graphite antennas- They were really good !! Only in the US market for a very short time they just disappeared !! I would like to see those again !! Easy to tune & they reduced RF NOISE TOO !
Man, the good stuff always goes away.

Good quality disconnects are very handy!

Liberty makes a graphite antenna, I believe in 3 foot, 4 foot and 6 foot. The 3 or 4 seems to do fine and is very sturdy. You can literally tie then in a knot they're so flexible. It's basically a graphite rod with the wire coiled around it from one end to the other, then covered in the black or white plastic coat. I like 'em.
