Please, don't take my comment seriously. It was tongue in cheek. There is one installed here serving a remote Elecraft station.
On at least one band, 17 meters, and one simple test, the Steppir at 45 feet beats the Buckmaster by 30 db!
Other bands, different results. The Buckmaster never wins compared to inverted vees though, but it DOES tune up on multiple bands. It and the Elecraft tuner get along fine, so it serves its purpose (which is NOT high performance).
