Tests are described comparing the sensitivity of the Erickson dipole feeds with the new strut-straddling Modified J-Pole (MJP) feeds using the new VLA Lowband receivers in the 54-86 MHz window. These tests show that the sensitivity of the MJP feeds for the “B” mounting position is comparable to the Erickson dipoles. For the “C” mounting position the MJP sensitivity is a factor of two worse than...
