Hi Alan;
I, and perhaps many others on this thread, would like to look at that
"independent report". Can you direct us to where it is. Somewhere other than a
competitors webpage, I hope.
Oh, in regards to AN vs Trylon. They both manufacture decent amateur products
but in the case of Trylon, their Titan Line (the line hams see the most) is
adequate but low end stuff compared to the rest of their product line. They
have been around almost 50 yrs and have manufactured 50,000+ towers in place
all
over the world. They are able to manufacture to any standard anywhere in the
world.
