[TowerTalk] Sommer antennas

[Gedas]

I had the 704 and it was absolutely the worse purchase I ever made.  They forgot to add all the aluminum (elements) for the warc bands and insisted they did and made me give up the 40m parts so I could get the aluminum I paid for in the first place.  Once up it was a mediocre performer at best, poor F/B, intermittent SWR and it did not last more than 4 years in our Indiana winters and winds.  My personal advice is stay away at all cost.

Hi, does anybody on the list have a Sommer XP504 or XP704 with the 40M
option?
Thinking about getting one, would like some opinions.
