As I would have suspected, the imax is a great transmitting antenna. 
Receive is not as good.  True, if I can hear it I can work it, but the noise 
floor is higher.  I am wondering if I ground this mast to an earth ground, 
if that will help.  The noise is a constant s8 on fifteen meters.  The 
vertical doesn't get out well on 20, but is s units better than the zepp on 
17 and up.  I have never used a vertical before.
