It sure would make life a lot easier...

So what about these homemade antennas then.. most of them for UHF.

How exact do the dimensions of the dipoles have to be for them to work really well? I see the UHF ones like the bay type have one length of dipole. If you are off by a couple inches making them would that throw off the quality of reception a large or little amount?

like what would you guess the amount you could be off in length? 5% 10% or 25%?

some people can just put up anything and get reception but if they were on the lower end of the scale on available nmdb
