Yuri,
Lets face it, if he spends a $1000 for a new antenna and puts it up this
summer. It is with certaincy that he will not have more QSOs than he had
with his present antenna this pass winter When propagation is not there you
can spend even more money and still not overcome the problem. Even the
antenna that you sell would be a better choice, (Lazer beam is it called?)
if it means forking out less money.For 10 and 15 metres when there is
propagation $1000 antennas doesn't make a real difference.

Why not wait until sun spot cycle turns around. I think I would wait a

few
years and then see what is on the market, it is a lot of money to spend

for
bands that are presently deteriating.

When the bands are "deteriating", that's when you need good antenna. When

bands
are good, the wet noodle will suffice. It is cheaper now than in the next
sunspot cycle.

Nothing like a "good" advice :-)
