I have a TH3MKII with a 30/17/12 dipole mounted five feet above the beam on a 54 foot Tri-Ex tower. I am thinking of replacing that with a 3 element StepIR. I am convinced it will be a step up in all

did you It's one antenna vs two. The boom is only 2 ft longer than the HyGain. Yes the elements are full size on 20, so a little more torque compared to the TH3 but you don't have the other dipole, s

Terry - I'm not sure if you mean to leave the dipole up or not. Get the 30/40M driven element, and do away with the dipole, and add a band. Why do you care if it's bigger? Will it extend over your pr

Mike, you raise a very good point. I was trading 12/17/30 for 12/17 and gain. But if I add the 30/40 trombone I get 30 meters back and add 40 meters to the top of the tower. Does anyone have any expe

I added the trombone to a 3-el SteppIR. It works like it should. However, you might want to consider a little more mechanical support for the trombone element before you put it on the tower. The ends

The biggest problem with bigger is the proximity of my tower layed over near the house. I originally laid it out to accommodate a cubical quad. When that went away in a hurricane I replaced it with a

Terry - Proximity to the house is a factor, I'd agree. I can't picture your set-up, but I wonder if something like this would help. Pricey, but ingenious. http://www.nn4zz.com/tiltplate.htm I have th

Mike, the bottom line is the reflector of the TH3MKIV hits the edge of the roof as I lower/tilt the tower. The SteppIR will be about four feet longer on a side, so much worse. The trombone would be e
