This is the mother of all HF yagi's. 10-12-15-7-20 without a tuner. !5 
full size elements, 3 feedpoints, no loading colils or traps means 
ultimate QRO limited only by the capability of your baluns.

I am including 3 cal-av baluns and 3 runs of LMR-400UF(ultra flex) for 
the rotor loop. Comes with the manual as as well.
F12 lists this antenna for 2363.00$ I am asking only 1300.00

The antenna is on my tower currently and will be removed by me upon 
agreement of a sale price. I would love to have the buyer here when I 
take it down so the buyer can disassemble and label parts to their liking.

Disclosures: One element has two bends in it. They each happened after a 
wind storm for the elements slapping each other.. Funny thing, it was 
two different storms 2 years apart...
The hairpin/match on the 20m driven element will need to be adjusted. as 
the SWR in the middle of the band is 3:1. Mark at force12 directed me to 
remove one loop of the coil making it 3 turns instead of 4.

If you are interested, Email me. Please include your phone number.
