I'll bet that by this evening you have had an entire slew of responses. Here's
mine. Its a knock off of a Cushcraft Ringo. The connector is UHF, not type N.
Measure its length from the top of the insulator to the tip, this will be just
under 1/2 wavelength at its resanence. Typicial gain would be about 3db.
