        Gee I guess when I got my TA 33 50 yr.s ago I should have taken
others advice. A bad antenna. Except I've installed a lot more than
one 3 el tribander of other manufacture for guys. Hygains were a mech.
nightmare. Cushcraft used hose clamps for goodness sake.

        I claim no tech. prowess or reams of lab paper to back up what I
say.Just real life experience.My origional 50 yr old TA 33 is still
wrking after two moves. Survived a tornado & lots of big wind.

        I've never run over 600w & the antenna has never been over 55' high.
I guess the 360 entities I have confirmed was just dumb luck. I need 3
more on CW & 2 on SSB. Just lucky I guess.

        I truely don't want to start flaming & I won't reply to them. But not
every one has bad experience with any product. it's what you do with
it. So many people either use a product wrong or thru their lack of
knowledge dis it as bad when properly used it performs well. I have
only used a few pieces of MFJ products & they worked as described but
many people bash them. That can be said of a lot of products that have
taken bashing on this & other reflectors. In the end it comes down to
whether we're satisfied or not. Some products have design errors which
you can't overcome. That you can't fix easily. But it also is a
personal decision to buy one brand over another. Whether you're happy
with that product to up to you..
