I have used both the Hi-Z and the DXE 8 circle - maybe I am missing something
but gain is one thing and signal to noise is another!

All -
I want to publicly thank the 50 or so of you who gave me input on the issue
of what to do about the new 630 meter band with respect to this reflector.
There were many good comments received.
I think the answers pretty much favored one of two actions:

the signal to noise ratio depends on the relationship between
external noise picked up by the antenna, the antenna preamp
noise, and the receiver front end noise. Because the
