Jim,

I used their 160 meter version for several years and it worked fine.  I 
mostly used it for 160 thru 40 since I have a 4 element quad for 10 thru 
20.  I still have it around and have used it portable a few times but 
for fixed use it has been replaced by a Hy Gain Hy Tower.  They are well 
built and it stood up to a lot of IL wind and ice.
