The Heliax will only do good if the length of the run is long.
I don't understand that. What does the type of antenna have to do with the
length of the run?
Do Heliax antennas have a couple of dB gain over other antennas? I can fix
attenuation in coax with an amplifier. So the more interesting question is
probably something like: Do Heliax antennas have better signal/noise ratio
than other antennas?
Heliax is a type/brand of coax not an antenna.
Another good use of excess funds is to improve the ground system. Do you
have a #8 wire going from the mast to a ground rod using the most direct
route and is this rod tied to the building ground system?
Is that part of the antenna, or just lightning protection?
