[TowerTalk] SteppIR vs Butternut

[Larry & Karen]

In the next couple days or so I will be ordering a 3 element SteppIR yagi and can't decide whether adding the 30/40 meter option would be worthwhile or not. Maybe it's a no brainer, but currently on 30 and 40 meters I have two other antennas, an extended double zepp at about 35 feet and a Butternut HF2V ground mounted and with 24 radials currently under it. Both of these have served well for DX so I'm wondering if anyone has any direct experience with a comparison like this and what they would recommend. Rotating the dipole at 60 feet would be nice, but then I've got the vertical. Thanks folks.
