I'm not surprised, it's a half wave on 400 and a full wave on 800. It's a BS impedance on 500 but what the heck, it works. Now MY questions are what is a "hockey stick" antenna and is the dipole mounted to an active antenna element or is that the support for what is above it? It may sound silly but what prompted me to ask is in my neighborhood there is a scanner antenna mounted ON a CB antenna without a mast, the mounting sleeve is held by a single wall bracket. Yeah, he's using one antenna to support another... CBsexy (whacker) style.
