That's pretty much what I'd expect having run the Antron 99 which is the 
same antenna under different name for many years on 10 meters when I used to 
talk to the locals every night and work dx when the band was open, we tried 
a lot of antennas between the group of us and the average 11 meter/CB 
antenna wasn't a problem on 10 meters, nowhere near a 4.
