[TowerTalk] stacking vertical 2 meter beams

I use a single 12 ele M2 here. It has been up 5 years or so. I have ospreys
( very large birds )that like to sit ALL THE WAY OUT ON THE TIP of the
antenna. It bends ever so slightly but bounces back fine. If I had put
something up of equal size by Cuschraft here ( especially if it didn't have
a boom support line of some kind ) it would be a pretzel by now.  The M2
does not have a support. It just takes a lickin' and keeps on tickin'.  I'm
very happy with it.  - Mike

Does anyone know of a decent set of 2 meter beams that the manufacturer
offers a stacking kit like cushcraft used to do with the 13b2 / 26b2? I
wouldn't mind the cushcraft but I'm wondering a bit about their quality
since MFJ acquired them.

I have looked at M2's 12 element but I've heard many bad tales about their
q/a.

Thank you.
