[TowerTalk] Mosley TW-33-XL

[JC_Smith@designlink.com]

Has anyone had any experience with the Mosley TW-33-XL?  Or does anyone know of
a comparable sized WARC tribander?  I know Mosley makes a decent antenna, and
it looks good on paper.  For the curious, here's what they say:

Band         Gain          F to B
10 MHz     6.0 dBd     18 dB
18 MHz     6.8 dBd     20 dB
24 MHz     7.2 dBd     20 dB

7.2 sq.ft., 180 lb. wind load at 80 mph.
boom:  2"x.104"x18'
longest element:  33' 7"
weight 55 lbs.
CW - 1500 W.
SSB - 2500 W.

They also have 2 element and dipole versions.

The gain figures look a little optimistic to me.  Your comments appreciated.
