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?
