Hi Guys:
Just want to get some opinions.
I currently have a C4XL at 75' (rotatable) and a C3 at 45' fixed to
Europe. I use a WX0B stack match to phase them.
My question to the group, should I stick with this setup or should I go
to a single large tribander like a C31XR?
I like my stack for domestic contests as I can spray my signal in two
directions, NE and NW at the same time which is nice for SS, NAQP etc.
But during the dx contests, I wonder if I can do better with a larger
single tribander?
If nothing else I probably need to get the lower antenna to rotate and
replace my guys with philly stran.
Thoughts?
