does anyone have an opinion on these beams? looking for an upgrade for my m-103's and want the option of flat and vert. mine now is 56' to mast pole and i know higher is better but, it looks like that's where mine is staying for the time being. just wanted a little feedback on these shooting star beams. thanks |

there good .personally i dont care for the dual polarity beams.id reccomend a m106 with a rotar to turn it and another to flip it on the flatside.a local has a 104 setup like this very neat.simple to put together and best of all only ONE coax run.just cant beat that dale/a.k.a.hotrod cef426 cvc#64

i agree.an maco m-106 mounted flat side that would be great on cef net day when dx is present.imho if ya wanna talk dx a flatside single polarity beam is a GREAT start dale/a.k.a.hotrod cef426 cvc#64
