Hi,
Although it may be noted that a disadvantage of this type of antenna
is SWR fluctuations during windy days, I also experience this with my 204CD
(a 4 element Cushcraft 20 meter yagi which does not use this method).
This is not meant as a criticism of Cushcraft's antenna, but rather
just as a note to not decide to use the Force 12 antenna simply for this
reason (since it will probably happen to some of the alternative antennas).
