Hi All
I have noticed recently that many DXPeditions seem to be operating RTTY
extensively on the WARC bands; as a result I am looking at changing over
from my Cushcraft A3S to a 5-band beam.
I am looking for input from owners of the following beams that use them on
RTTY:
- Force 12 XR-5
- Spiderbeam (5 band Heavy Duty model)
- OptiBeam OB9-5 or OB11-5
I am currently leaning towards the Spiderbeam due to it's light weight (and
subsequent MUCH lower shipping cost to get to South Africa) but would
appreciate critique from users of any of these models.
