[TowerTalk] M2 "Skip Log" vs. SteppIR

[Peter Chadwick]

 A downside to the Steppir over a log periodic if you happen to be the military is that it won't allow wide band systems or frequency hopping. If you don't need that facility, it must offer pretty good advantages to military/commercial people.
For ham use (which is my only interest), I'm very impressed with the performance of mine. Price wise, it compares reasonably well with a set of monobanders, and offers  less wind loading and top weight.
As far as mechanical reliability is concerned, we'll have to wait and see. So far, the reports suggest it's OK.
