Well If I only had the choice of those 3 I would try the Cushcraft.
Allthough I have never used one, it has GOT to be better than the MFJ,
which works more like a dummy load than an antenna, just because SWR is
good does not mean the antenna is!
If I could look elsewhere, I would maybe consider other antennas...i.e.,
R7, GAP, maybe Force 12, Hygain also makes one.
I don't know how the hygain works, I have the HF2V and if it works anything
like that I would probably buy it.
