Don, I didn't mention the B&W, but I'm investigating a quarter-wave sloper from Alpha-Delta Communications. Unfortunately, it might be a bit problemmatic with my tower, which is guyed, but it has played very well for quite a few people i've talked with. The angle of radiation is lower, so it does a decent job on DX on the lower bands. It will work 80-10, and I know people who've loaded it on 160 as well. Be interested in others' experiences with a quarter-wave sloper. To make it work, you need a tower with a tribander on it as the tribander gives it top-hat capacitance. Steve, K8SP
