[TowerTalk] Force 12 Delta 240 2 Elem 40M Yagi

[David Gilbert]

I do believe that the coil loaded Shorty 40's (F12 or other) are a much 
better choice than the linear loaded versions.  I think that W8JI wrote 
a piece on that once ... maybe it's even on his website. I have the 
Optibeam OB2-40, which is a coil loaded Shorty 40 similar to the F12 
antenna except much sturdier, and it works great (yes, I've measured the 
pattern).

73,
