Hi Tim,
I've been using a Warc-7 for about a year now. It's about 100' high. Of
course, no good performance data on 12M. On 17, it's just ok. 2 el does
not make me feel loud. I love it on 30M - the 2 el DOES make me feel loud.
Mechanically, it's pretty good. The 30M antenna is linearly loaded and the
setting the center frequency may take a couple adjustments. Mine ended up
above the band, but the band is so narrow, I just accepted it.
Bottom line - other than wishing for another element on 17, I'm very happy
with it.
73, Bud N7CW

Subject: [TowerTalk] Experiences with Force 12 - Warc-7 Yagi?
Anyone using the Force 12 tribander - "Warc-7" - for the Warc bands? I have
never had anything but wires for the 30, 17, 12 mtrs, and am thinking about
ordering the Warc-7 to cover these bands. It should be considerably better
than what I have now. Your experiences, good or bad?
Thanks for any responses.
73, Tim - N3XX
