I am trying to figure out the optimal length of a single whip to cover the following frequecies to the best it possibly can:
42 Mhz
72 Mhz
150 - 173 Mhz
460 Mhz
850 - 860 Mhz.
So far I am at 33 inches with decent results, but the 42 MHZ is significantly degraded. Any others out there want to try and find the optimal length?
I know a multi band antenna would be preferred but I am just playing around here.
Take care.
