I am no Cushcraft fan but I notice that many DX stations with fat signals
are using the old A3 and A4 tribanders. Not all can be explained off by
the competition as due only to location. The same holds true with the
huge amounts of short boom Mosely and Hi Gain beams that have been sold
the past 30 years or so. .  Some just refuse to accept that.


Neither can I accept a paid employee of another antenna/amplifier/etc,
etc company continuing to rather vocally and condemn  readers with
gobbleydook on the reflector.
The world does not revolve around one person who appears to enjoy
unrestricted protection....
The X9 deserves a full on site evaluation around the world, not just one
"experts" hot air.
