The problems that other antenna manufacturers have is that  there are limits
on their ability to make a wide variety  of
models.   I remember Wilson advertised a page full of mono band models with
3 to 8 elements on 20 and 15, and 3 to 10 elements
on 10 plus combinations of multi bands.  I asked about the 5 el 15 and 6 el
10 and they told me that they had to get 5 or 6 orders
before they would build them.  Now I see more new F12 models in CQ Contest
Magazine (C49XR with 5 el on 20 and 10 on 10, forget if 15 was 5 or 6).
Does Force 12 actually build them or do they use the computer to model a
possible combination but only build them if enough orders come along?  I
don't think Force 12 is any different than the other manufacturers except
they are more high tech.

Just wondering....
