True, but what's a little "cut and try" among friends. Of course an AIM might help.

It's not quite that simple. I noted the "gotchas" with doing that in an earlier post in this thread that i won't repeat.

If you are happy with the OCF antenna except for the power handling, why not just replace the baluns (wind your own with the aid of Jim Brown's tutorial) Increasing the power handling of those baluns is relatively simple.

Howdy, TowerTalkians --
I need some feedback on a multiband wire antenna. I'm looking for something that's already assembled and works decently. 80-10 would be nice and
we can use a tuner. It doesn't have to be a stellar performer. DX
Engineering has a bunch and I've installed a Carolina Windom before but don't know
much else about it.
I'm interested in your experience or other info you might have. All
comments appreciated!
  Cheers,
