[TowerTalk] Innovantennas. Just say no.

[Jorge Diez - CX6VM]

the problem with optibeam or Antennas-Amplifiers is that is hard to find in
USA the tubes sizes if you need to repair the antennas

I have a 6 mts Antenna-Amplifiers yagi, works great, but one tip was
broken. I couldn´t find locally or in the USA a 10 mm aluminium tube to
repair it.

My Innovantennas elements broke several times, Justin send me some tube to
repair them. Now the problem is with the boom, bigger problem

On the other hand, my first yagi antenna was a Cushcraft XM510. I have had
a 3 x XM510 stack since 2008, 17 yrs on the tower!, never a problem!
