I was just quoting the gain figure posted by the other op. I understand how it works, and don’t expect 6 dB from an LPA.
Ideally I would keep the discone, and add the LPA. Note- there would be a height difference as well as a location difference between the two antennas. LPA would be 10 ft higher than the discone. Also, the LPA would be clear from some large trees that block the discone from the north.
As far as the Gain on my Hustler G7 - mfr. specs. I doubt I have 3 dB gain on that antenna at 21 feet. But, it’s durable and so far a great antenna for what I use it for.
Thanks for all the info.
