[TowerTalk] Hex beam again

[W0MU Mike Fatchett]

I have the same hex beam K4KIO, we used one at J6M an J3M.   If you need 
to share the antenna you can with the right box.  In J3 we would have 
probably have been able to get a 2 ele beam like a steppIR on the 3rd 
story deck.  The width of the hex did not allow installation there so we 
used a fiberglass mast.  The SteppIR cannot be shared at the same time.

There has been lots of talk about how good or bad they are with the 
possible interactions.  I compared the Hex to the SteppIR 2 ele and 
there is little difference when we were in J6.
