Great, thanks for the feedback. I figured the whiskers were too short. The GH10n3 looks good as well as the recommended bowties. I'm going to get some more copper wire, any recommendations on gauge?

Here is the data at 25

And 40

In terms of grounding, lets say I build the GH10n3 on a pvc support, connect the pvc to a metal mast. What is the proper protocol for grounding? Mast to ground? or???

Thanks again. It is very refreshing to talk to some knowledgeable folks. I had a guy at radioshack tell me hes been doing this his whole life and where I'm at the only way to get reception is a large 12' directional antenna with an amp.
