Message: [QUOTE="RF Engineer, post: 237006"]Their "theoretical" gain figures and "raw" vs "net" gain debates may be interesting reading but it has little to do with real world performance on a actual RF field strength test range or at your home.My HD-4400 easily outperforms all other 4 bay bowties on the market today and it does it while having a much wider pattern than the rest.I have tried the 4221, Antennas Direct 4 bay, stellar labs 4 bay, and extreme signal 4 bays and they fell short in the REAL world.The fat dipole design of the Winegards produces more gain and wider bandwitdth than any of the wire whisker antennas and is a superior design which is why to this day all Winegard antennas still use the fat UHF dipoles on their antennas and why they produce more gain than all other antennas of the same size[/QUOTE]
