Hi all,

Another nice 40m yagi is the Hygain Discoverer-2 (2el 40m). The nice thing is they are expandable to 3 elements with a lengthened boom. I have a pair of them I hope to stack in the near future. They are very reasonable used (I picked up both of mine for $300 each locally).

The Cushcraft 40CD2 (now the XM-240) seems to play well. I've had one for almost 30, starting out on a city lot, and it helps a lot.

I don't want to re-ignite the Moseley wars, but I would be happy if someone could point me at an a 40 meter beam that might be able to fit on a city lot.
