Tom:
I'll definitely let all of you know how it performs if we decide to go down
that route.
Here's an interesting side note. A private individual is wanting to donate
the new, still in the box, Chameleon to me for use at one of our remote
antenna installations.
Yeah...what a deal, huh?

Well, if you do get one, let us know how it performs.
I always have an open mind on these sorts of things, and do realize the
need for compromise antennas at times.
