I would strongly recommend the SteppIR (BigIR) with 80m coil for very
efficient all band coverage. Anything else is a compromise, and usually has
higher losses and narrow fixed tuned bandwidth.  Like all verticals, it
likes a lot of radials if ground mounted.

Howdy all...
 
I am going to be relocating to a new QTH and was looking at getting a  new
multiband vertical.  I would like to have something that would be for 40 -
15 meters.   I know there are lots of options out there, but just not sure
which ones are really worth the money.  I have been steering more thowards
the Hy-Gain.  Any help or opinions would greatly be appreciated.
 
Thanks,
 
Dave
