[TowerTalk] C-3E to C-4E?

[Dale L. Martin]

C4/C-4E users who upgraded from C3/C-3E:

Was the upgrade to a '4 a good move?

Force 12 claims some DB gain of their 80/160 monoband dipole over
a dipole with a similar apex height.  Do you feel the 40m add-on
to the '3 nets a similar gain?

Did you do the upgrade on the tower or on the ground?

Force 12 says you can feed C3 driven elements separately.  Can
you still do this with the 40m addition?

If you are doing 2-radio contesting using the '4, what are you
using for BPF's?  Are they effective with the elements so close
together and on the same plane?

Thanks in advance for any info.

73,
