Nobody own one that antenna?!?

Sirio has a good reputation. I will probably give them a try next time I need an antenna. I do know personally those who have run them and they work well.
rabbiporkchop and Ougigoug Thank this. -
I am about to order one and for pretty much the same money as a wilson i'll give them a try. -
-
Will do no doubt!

I have heard that it has a slightly higher Q than the comparable Wilson 5000 which would make it a slightly more efficient antenna but I doubt you would notice much of a difference.
Antennas with a high Q are narrowband, antennas with a low Q are wideband. The higher the value of Q, the more sensitive the input impedance is to small changes in frequency.
A narrow banded antenna should always outperform a wide banded antenna at the center frequency -
As soon as i have the antennas i will let you know what i see, there is a crowd of cb/hams close to where i live some stations i hear well some are little out of range i will hear the difference if there is one.
-
The only difference you might experience is a transmitting difference. I don't think a four inch difference in the antenna length will have hardly any effect on what you hear.
Ougigoug Thanks this. -
What about conception and design instead of lenght to maybe catch further station?
Your toughts...
