Hi Tom,
Those broad band B and W antennas are nothing but a non resident antenna 
swamped by a resistor to make the swr look good.  They are very 
inefficient@!

I also thought about one of those B and W antennas, since we have one up at
our County EOC, but thought I might be able to do a little better and spend
somewhat less money.

I guess the truth remains to be seen.
