The newer beta rods have a sliding short and does not make use of
a hole tapped in the boom at a fixed point in order to permits
adjustment of the beta match when using the "174BA Option" (page 11
of the LJ-204BA.pdf manual on the Hy-Gain web site).

I'm looking for some Hy-gain Long John info:

1.  Has anyone retuned a 153BA for 12m operation and can provide their final
dimensional settings?

2.  I have a pair of older 204BA's with the # 175121 beta rods (90 deg
bend).  Hy-gain apparently changed the design to use the newer #179786 beta
rods (45 deg bend) although they apparently still use the #175121's on the
203BA's    Does anyone know why or if there was some matching problem with
the original design rods?

Thanks for any info.
