Since my antenna won't be pointed upwards, I do not think I need the slight improvement that the gasfet would provide. Since I have the BF998 dual gate mosfets anyway, it's a match made in heaven. I'd definitely go for the gasfet if I had an eme array or was working satellites. Yes, the 1444 was a typos, meant 144 MHz.
