Hi Alan!

Could you please reply with what, specifically, "9 element M Square yagi"
you use?  I'd like to take a look at it more closely.

I can't recommend any six meter verticals, but I have been extremely happy
with my 9 element M Square yagi, and wouldn't hesitate to buy another one.

Hi!

 

For the 6M band, I need recommendations for 1) which is the "best" type of
antenna and 2) specific recommendations for such antenna.  Basically, as far
as the type of antenna, for me it comes down to a) a di-pole, b) a vertical
or c) a j-pole.  Below are links to a vertical and also a J-pole I am
considering.  I do not have any specific di-pole in mind; so any
recommendations for one would be appreciated.  Whatever antenna I settle on,
it should cover 50 - 54 MHZ.

13.5' J-pole:
