You can compare those figures against various tribander's performance in our tribander comparison report (available from www.championradio.com) to give you some reference vis-a-vis other multi-band antennas. > and no more 2m vertical to attract lightining.!!! once is enough. The 2M antenna isn't the problem. It just happened to be the highest point on the tower. If you had a lightning rod above the 2M, it would've been just fine. Apparently you didn't have the tower or antenna feedline adequately grounded. Next time it'll find another point to discharge to - either the mast or another antenna - so you've still got a basic problem.
