OK folks, now a word from our grinch:

I can’t imagine spending all that money to put that complicated antenna up in 
the air 
when an LPDA will do the same thing with no moving parts and, at most, 2dB of 
claimed gain.
And at HALF the price, with far lower maintenance liability.
To each his (her) own, but I’d rather not have all that technology up in the 
lightning zone!
It’s just no fun and the extra money will buy a LOT of beer!
Yes, I could afford one, but my second hand TH-3 is making me quite happy.
One of these days I’ll put up a log, when the WARC bands lure me...
73,
Wilson
