What exactly is a "gain J-pole"?  Am familiar with J-poles, but...  Sounds 
interesting.

===================================================
Our ultimate solution was to replace the copper pipe
dipoles with a gain J-pole made out of #12 copper wire
and hung inside the radome from the tip.  The J was
found to have feed line reflections which was solved
by adding a coaxial stub at the exterior feed point.  This
flattened the line and preserved the radiation pattern of
the J.  A lot of fussing but the end result was a light
weight antenna with a gain and radiation pattern very close
to that of the original Stationmaster.
