Keith,
that is my "problem" as well; just last night I worked ZS6CCY on 75m
with my vertical, and could hardly hear him on the dipole.
In short, it seems the opposite of what I would expect, since in the
last 4 months, I have worked over 90 countries on 80, including many in
Europe, Africa, Oceania, Asia, South and Central America.
So I am figuring I just don't understand something, or I put out enough
radials to compensate and am not just heating the worms up.

Mine too. Apparently my vertical won't work and I won't be able to work
FM5 using 10 watts (like I did last night). I'll have to take the
vertical down and put up a dipole.
Either that or I didn't do the tool right :-)
