[TowerTalk] HF6V v. HF6VX vertical; current balun question

[Bob Alexander]

I recently asked the same question of Butternut in an e-mail.
The VX was made with shorter tubing lengths so it could be shipped via UPS
without oversize charges.  After UPS changed their size rules the VX ws
dropped.
Some stores still advertize it as a VX (HRO and possibly others)but it is an
HF6V.
A acomparison of the manuals on-line clearly shows the differences
