Surely you don't expect a 4 element on a 26 foot boom to be competition for 
a 4 element SteppIR on a 32 or 34 foot , do you?  I was just leveling the 
playing field by taking the boom from a 205BA and taking away one of the 
directors.

The day that some company comes out with an antenna that can vary the length 
of the elements and change spacings between the elements, then I will 
consider buying one,
