Dear subscribers, I appreciate all the reponses to my yagi opinion survey. The results boiled down to Force 12 and M2 as the "winning" candidates for the 20m monobander. There seems to be sharp disag

Not quite. As an owner of both the 20M4 and the EF420, I can tell you there is a much more important consideration. The 20M4 is built like a tank, with probably a 3" boom in the middle. The Force 12

Good afternoon, Chris. Thought I would make a note to you about your response. The comment about Force 12 using "much thinner tubing" needs to be clarified, because it is generally inaccurate. The tu

Physics still says, I think, that more elements, properly placed, equal more gain. Could I, and physics, be wrong? K4VUD -- FAQ on WWW: http://www.contesting.com/towertalkfaq.html Submissions: towert

So -- Maybe Mike at M2 wasn't so wrong when he said that a 4 element on a gain-optimized boom had about as much gain as one could realistically obtain in practice? .2 and .25 spacing of a 20m 4 eleme

Hi Frank; I don't know where you got the idea that the Force 12 antennas are so outrageously priced. If you compare their cost of the C-3 that I own to the cost of a Moseley Classic 33, (I owned a 33
