Curious to see what all the hype is with the force 12 antennas i read the
reviews on eham.net. Most of the reviews are downright funny with hams
claiming to have worked dxcc. I like others find this not a hard
accomplishment because one can work 200 or more countries using an ordinary
dipole.

I later went to the website of force12 and found out the c3s antenna arrives
at your home in a 4 foot box and is put together using rivets!

I am not downing this antenna but can someone who has put one of these
antennas on the air give me some comparison studies?

I am using the "old" Mosley TA33SR with its Excellent construction and
reliability. What about you hams who used one of these Mosleys and tried
another antenna and went back to a Mosley.

thanks
