Second opinion - my Cushcraft A50-5S let me work all states on 6 meters in
a 30 day period in November 2001. Also bagged some nice DX - Australia,
Pitcairn Island, Costa Rica, Marshall islands....and it worked fine running
just 100 watts. Mine is mounted atop a 40 foot tower, about 8 feet above
my Mosley Pro57B. No interaction problems noted on either antenna. Good
luck with your installation!
