    "content": "Someone gave me an old but new-in-box version of the same antenna a few\nyears ago.  I did a shoot out between it and the three element Arrow.  I\nused a ten degree AO-7 and a two degree VO-52 pass for comparison between\nmode B satellites.\n\nMy tests showed the Cushcraft in RHCP did not perform better than the\nArrow.  In fixed horizontal configuration, I saw a slight improvement with\nthe Cushcraft.  In both antenna setups, I had the antennas fixed at the\nhorizon.\n\nThis was a crude test and I didn't use any formal measurements in my\nassessment.\n\nOverall I would not recommend this antenna for circular polarity satellite\nuse. For terrestrial vertical / horizontal operating I'm sure it's okay.\n\n73\nClayton\nW5PFG\nOn Oct 3, 2013 9:38 PM, \"Les Rayburn\" <[email protected]> wrote:\n\n> I just acquired a \"new\" in the-box, never assembled Crushcraft A144-10T\n> \"VHF Twist\" antenna.
