As with all things Force12... if its not in the catalog, it doesn't hurt
to ask!  They used 40M ZR's at 6Y2A. Tom has built others to order
for commercial frequencies.

     Well, the BEST vertical is the Force 12 ZR-3 but it's only available
for 
20-15-10. It has the most efficiency and bandwidth of any commercial
vertical 
available.
