[aprssig] Antenna recommendation

[Stephen Brown Jr]

Digi owners, can you recommend a decent antenna that is inexpensive (<=$100)
for an APRS digipeater? I just installed a remote WX station and he
currently has a yagi on it pointing back to me and I have offered to change
it out with something omni-directional to enable digipeater functions. I am
seriously considering a Cushcraft Ringo Ranger, the site is located at about
1900ft here in the mountains of East TN and the antenna will be at the 50ft
mark on the tower.

We will also be putting a packet node on 145.010 there as well and want to
use the same type of antenna for both, would the Ringo Ranger be a good
choice?
