Yeah, that little bit of extra gain probably helped him, but still can't see gaining 10 whole feet in boom length for just that little bit of gain.

Going to keep my 3 Element, put it on flat about 1/2 wavelength (maybe a little higher) above ground for DX and locals that have Flat.

Getting a 4 element to put as high as I can get it on vertical for lolcal talk and some DXing.

Moving my Imax 2000 to the other side of my shop on a longer piece of coax to still be able to use it when I don't feel like turning the beams, but get it out of the way of the 2 beams so they don't hit it while turning.
