Give Cook towers at call toll free 877-992-2665 they carry a few 1/2 waves for 175 MHz. I guess you have no ground plane or something? If you do have a ground plane a 5/8 would give a bit more gain. At our church we used a small 3 dbd fiberglass base station Omni in the drop ceiling above the mic receiver. It was about 3' tall and fit up in the ceiling just fine. it never losses the mic's. 73 Russ
