Before simply accepting this conclusion, it would make sense to re-
read the original thread in the archives.

While the conclusion was indeed as stated, the conclusion was based on 
the fact that not a lot of people in the US were using these 
antennas, therefore they had to be inferior.

A number of European stations (including the top British band-country
chaser) are using these antennas successfully, and what little first-
hand experience I have with them is certainly no less favourable than 
with Moseley, HyGain or Cushcraft.
