Gain is 2.15 dB....... where have I heard this number before..... It must be better than the VHF antennas as they only have a gain of Unity...   klc

The power rating is a little wimpy, but I guess with the 2.15dB no one will notice............hi

READ the top line; looks like they're only a "dealer".
"Antenna Systems offers antennas by the frequency range of  1.3 - 30 MHz from Antenna Factory, Comtelco, M2, NCG/Comet, and Sinclair."

The M2 80 meter antennas have been around for years.
