Seeking suggestions/ideas from anyone with relevant experience owning and maintaining antennas on the Caribbean. Specifically, I was wondering what would be a good set up on the upper bands- 2 or 3 el yagi/tribander, a quad, hex beam, etc. Primary consideration is the ability to withstand strong 35-50 mph winds (thankfully, no hurricanes!) and the harsh weather. Proximity to the beach is about 500 yards and about 100' above sea level.
