You don't need my help :^) An non resonant antenna length of 39" will work on all RX's operating @ 72MHz. A couple of inches either way? I know I don't have the equipment here at work sensitive enough (our SA's, NA's, FC's, are only around $45,000 ea) to measure such a small change (dBm) in sensitivity...
