Copy the M2 9 elements on a 50 ft bom.  K1SG uses two of them stacked.

Hi,

I'm getting ready to begin my tower project here and have decided that I'd
like to have a nice big beam for 6 meters.  I'm thinking about a 30 to 35'
boom with 8 or 9 elements would be nice.  I was wondering if anyone on this
group has modeled something similair to what I'm describing or has plans to
build one.  I know m2 makes one close to what I'm looking for BUT I would
like to stay away from commercial stuff if possible.  I actually have some
money saved up for this so this is a once in a lifetime opportunity for me
to get something for 6m that will REALLY REALLY play.  Size is not an issue,
so I'd love to hear what the "big guns" on 6 are using and if you have any
ideas for a nice BIG yagi for 6.


Thanks,
Matt
