Guys, I stumbled across the thread about the "home brew" OCFD antenna and after reading through a ton of posts on it, I'm wondering if a home made dipole of some kind might be better for me?
I'm monitoring VHF high band ONLY 154-159 MHz region.
If so, could I use these basic instructions...

But with equal length sections on each end? I'm not sure about theory and resonance and all that stuff. Just looking to experiment with the home brew antenna and since I'm only listening to a limited section of one single band, I wondered if a true dipole would be more effective than an offset.
Thanks for any input.
