[TowerTalk] OptiBeam OB4-40 vs M2 40M4LLDD?

[john at kk9a.com]

I have a pair of OptiBeam OB2-40 beams at 75' and 150' high. For their size 
they work very well.  The loading coils are massive and in my opinion a 
better shortening method than linear loading. The construction is excellent 
and OptiBeam's customer service is fantastic.  BTW, I made a lot of QSOs 
using single OB2-40 at P40A.  I am sure that the OB4-40 is a great 
performer.

Looking for any feedback on either of the OB4-40 or the 40M4LLDD.  If you 
were
to decide to install one vs the other....Why and if you have either antenna
what would your pros / cons be?

Thanks...
