Hello...

as part of redesigning my complete antenna setup i am thinking
to replace the existing A3WS WARC Beam (including 30m) to
a WARC7 by Force 12.
This antenna gives me 2 Ele on 30,2 on 17m and 3 on 12m with Monoband
performance..
The A3WS, as most of you know, has 3 on 12 and 17, but only
a dipol on 30m (Trapyagi).

Did anybody compare these 2 yagis in the past?

Is the F12 WARC7 a better performer than the CC A3WS ??
I was quite satisfied  with the CC so far, but 2 Ele on 30m vs a Dipol
would be a big  improvement ...What about 17m ?  The WARC7
is only a 2ele against 3ele with the CC....
I will stack this beam around  9 ft with an C31XR..... Did anybody
notice
some coupling between these antennas...?

Any comments are welcome...
