I lost my last printed catalog from MFJ.  You will have to look it up.  I currently have a T-10 Tennedyne log yagi.  Just want to compare, Remember this is a 3 element per band rather than most other hex beams are 2 element.

To be honest.I have not seen it.My question.With 3 elements isn't it approching the size of a tribander?Is the effiency the same as a tribander? I will look for this on mfj website..73 john
