Hi Kris,
I own a Stepir 3 element beam and it works very well for me. The way I use
the beam is to connect the control box to the rs232 port on my ts590. The
antennas tuning automatically follows the transceiver's frequency. The
antenna works GREAT!
The control box has 15 buttons on its face and since they are discrete
buttons, they can easily be located.

Hi All,
I am considering putting up a Steppir vertical antenna, and am wondering if
any of you are using one and if so, is there a way to use the control box?
I talked with the people at Steppir this afternoon and they said the new
control box would not be accessible. He said it has buttons, it's not a
touch screen, so I wondered why you couldn't memorize the buttons and know
what they do. He also said they recommend using HRD to control the radio.
This should make things work since I have speech and raille on my computer.
I would appreciate any information any one can give me.
73 to all
Kris
