Actually, I was mistaken - it is a Mosely Classic 36. I went out and
spread everything out, measured, and verified in the manual this time.
Something tells me that the answer is the same... :-)
I've currently got a well installed 6BTV and a 20m EDZ, and those two
antennas have me at 115 countries in about 18 months, and primarily
digital. In other words, they've done a good job for me! I'm just looking
to achieve that watershed wow factor that I've heard of in going from wire
to a beam. That said, I don't want to throw good money after bad!
Thanks y'all,
Matt
