In the mid 1960's Hygain built the original series
of "Long John" antennas for 10-15-20-40 meters. These antennas
were much larger and more of a professional antenna than the
present series of antennas. The 20 meter antenna was FIVE
elements on a 46 foot boom, the 40 meter beam was a full size
3 element. The 10 meter version (106B) was six elements on
a 34 foot boom if I remember correctly. I don't remember the
details on the 15 meter version.
I think I still have the manuals on all of these antennas.
can check the files for more details if anyone is interested.
