Elliot,


I have several JK Antennas including a 3040SR which has 4 elements on 
40m and 3 elements on 30m.  All 7 elements are coil loaded.

These are robust antennas and the hardware is excellent.  We have very 
windy conditions here in Amarillo and the antennas are holding up nicely.

I'm sure my yagi is using the same hardware and tubing that is used in 
the dipoles.

Don't hesitate ordering from JK.  The service is excellent and the 
antenna will be excellent.

The JK Antenna website doesn’t show any access to the assembly manual that I would like to see before any purchase.  I have made a request for the manual from JK Antenna but so far no response.
