There are lot of antennas that will cover these bands so I am sure you
will get many opinions. Of the two choices that you mentioned, if price
was not a factor I would definitely pick the OptiBeam.  It has no traps
and OptiBeam makes a quality product and offers excellent customer
service.

List-post:

I am thinking about a newer (maybe better) HF antenna. I have now a T-11 LPA
from Tennadyne.

I've always had good results with hy gain and never owned an opti beam.

Any thoughts on a TH-11 vs an Opti beam OB 9-5.

Both offer the same bands. 10,15,20,17,12.

thanks for your thoughts,
