All:

Anyone using one of Optibeam's "Log Yagi" antennas? The documentation states 
that they have several advantages over standard log-periodic designs — it also 
mentions enhanced performance above the calculated gain, which is attributed to 
the large radiation area of the antenna.

One of the models has a F/B of 35db which is pretty impressive for an HF 
antenna.
See:  https://www.optibeam.net/index.php?article_id=136&clang=1
Documentation: https://www.optibeam.net/files/logyagi_e.pdf

This might be a better choice compared to motorized multi-band antennas like 
the SteppIR which are no longer in production.
