Big toys for big boys.

But the reasoning behind 3 over 4 over 4 escapes me.
As does the expense and complexity of the H frame.

Perhaps it was driven by pure gain, and the desire to
hear moonbounced HF.  

I had a 3 el steppIR, and the one area of concern for me was
the control wire connections.  If something goes amiss topside,
it's a crane job to get to it.  

But, hey, Buzz Reeves put up an 80m yagi, and it lasted exactly
one contest, as I heard the story.  

Big boys, big toys.  

Have a happy thanksgiving, all.
