Nevermind the lead on information - found it.
Looks to be a regular terminated v-beam with some sort of transformer to match
it to multiple bands, probably something similar to the ring transformer used
by some of the quad companies. Has to be set up at a compromise angle (or
maybe you pick your favorite band and set the angle for it), as the seperation
between the wires for optimizing for each band is different (and importaqnt
with a regular v-beam).
Really not that hard to build from scratch, especially for a $240 price tag,
and will multiband if fed with a tuner and homebrew feeders (or 300-450 line).
Biggest problem is the termination resistors, and you need (or don't need)
them, depending on what you are trying to do with the antenna. If I remember
right, Cebik has some info about v-beams on his home page. I know I've seen
homebrew terminating resistor articles somewhere.
Think I'll just build one here and save $150-200.
