C3i just sold to new owners. There is a link to K8GP,who has used their
antennas. I wouldn't think about trying to do anything on 432 with 20 watts
unless I had up at least 2 real good yagis(at least 3 wavelength booms). If
anyone is making a version of the K1FO FO-22 or FO-25 or any of the M2's 432
yagis would be fine.
