You are correct, the 2 element 40M Hy-gain is the 402BA. The 4 element 20M
beam is the 204BA. BTW, Stan has quite a number of Hy-gain monobanders that
he will be selling, so if anyone is interested, I can let the list know when
he puts them up for sale. If I remember correctly, he has 19 Hy-gain
monobanders that he won't be using.

Hi Phil and Ed,
If I'm not mistaken, I believe the Hy-Gain two element 40 meter beam was
Model 402BA, not 204BA. Back in the '80's I owned the 402BA and a TH6DXX.
I purchased these before stainless hardware was supplied.
I now own a two element 40 meter beam and a 11 element beam for 20, 17, 15,
12 and 10 meters made by Optibeam. The Optibeams are much higher quality
than the Hy-Gain products.
