Hi Allan

I have the Force12 EF320 @ 50ft and a 4BA 10 ft above it. This   
combination is essentially a 5BA. The reason I used this combination is   
to keep the turning radius under 20ft. I'm in a woods and didn't want to   
remove any more trees than necessary.  I am very happy with the   
combination. The antennas were very easy to assemble and I get very good   
reports on all bands. Delivery was about 2 weeks and Tom gave excellent   
support on any questions I had. I hope this was of some help.

Good evening.

I am interested in purchasing a Force 12 Model 5BA antenna. While I have
heard a lot about the Force 12 C-3 and others I haven't much about the   
5BA.

I would like the opportunity to ask about installation, performance and
withstanding the tough Chicago winters.

If you know someone who has a 5BA or participated in the installation or
operation of one I would appreciate hearing from you.

My new tower will be a tri-ex LM-354 54' crank up tilt over model with 16
sq. ft. wind load capability at 50mph. I would like to put a super   
antenna
on top the tower.

Thanks very much for your input.

73, Allan N9AT
