Hello all:

I currently have a EF-240S (part of  a C-4SXL) at 40 feet on a quad mount roof tower. It works surprisingly well, and my quad mount (Glenn Martin) is built like a tank.  Since my big tower project will probably be delayed until next year, I've been thinking of replacing my 40 meter antenna with a 4 Square, located in a marshy area of my yard. Granted, I realize we're talking two different antennas but general thoughts appreciated.  BTW, if I move take down the 40 meter elements I can then raise my 20-10 m elements up another 10 feet or mount something like a 2 ele quad.

Thanks - CU at Dayton!
