September 2007 QST Feedback

The antenna-raising photo on the cover of the August 2007 issue shows N6PEQ, W1HIJ, K7JA, CM2OY, CM2KL and CO2II at COØUS during Field Day 2003. It was taken by Janet Margelli, KL7MF. — tnx K7JA

In “Six Band Loaded Dipole,” by Al Buxton, W8NX [Aug 2007 QST, pp 34-36], the author reports that the gain of the antenna on 40 meters is 1.5 dB relative to half-wave ordinary dipole rather than the 3 dB indicated.
