Tim, TT:
The extra 20' should improve longhaul performance on 20.
If it were me, I'd go with a 3 el SteppIR yagi, and get
both improved performance and lower windload.
The only question would be, how much of the 24' boom
(I think I recall that correctly) is active on each of
the 3 bands, with the Bencher Skyhawk.
The 3 el steppIR only has a 16' boom...and while it can be
current tuned to tweak the pattern, the skyhawk may have
a marginally superior performance in some of the corners
of its specs curves.
I debated this, before buying my first steppIR, some years
ago. Never regretted the decision.
