Lonnie,
 
While I don't have any personal experience with their 40m antennas, I would 
personally recommend that you take a look at OptiBeam and see what they offer. 
I 
have one of their antennas for 10-20m (5 Band) and the construction of it is 
nothing short of fantastic. Maybe some of the others have experience with a 40m 
OptiBeam and comment on it directly. Also, I can tell you that their customer 
service is outstanding. This is my first OptiBeam and if I was in the market 
for 
something else I think I would go with OptiBeam if I could again. Good luck 
with 
whatever you decide to go with.
 
73,
Todd

Hello out there.

I'm at a loss as to what to replace a snow-damaged 2 el 40m beam with. 

Everything I've found on-line doesn't really call out how strong the antenna 
is. 


Ideally, since most "gain" figures would be nebulous anyway, I want the 
STRONGEST beam 

out there since it's going on Bertha at 100 feet.

Any suggestions?
