What other tri-banders have you owned/used?  How does the TA-33 compare in
the K7LXC/N0AX book?

I will put my mosley ta-33 classic againt the 3 el ir or c31 force 12 any
day and come up big in many ways,here they are: #1 the mosley 33 classic is
650.00 shipped,my antenna get the same signal reports as the 3 el steppir
every time,and maybe the c31xr has a small margin of gain over both the IR
and mosley just because of it's much larger boom and more elements.now here
you have two antennas which preform equally,the difference is the stepp ir
cost 1700.00 thats 1100.00 more than the mosley,by the way my mosley is
around 30 year old in the air.Still working like new.Had to change the coax
a few times and clean the traps which were really clean anyway.so you make
the decision own an antenna that does not require a tuner in line but will
definatley have service issues in 5-10 years(How much is a motor?)or a
mosley you put up and forget its there for 30+ years and save the 1100.00
towards a new amp or vacation.I rest my case..
