For my $.02 worth, I had a RS discone and after two years, a 70+ MPH

you don't have these types of winds to contend with, I'd say it was a
great discone, because it was for the time that I had it.

I now have a "Diamond" and am very pleased with it's construction. We



I've owned both the RS and diamond discones and agree with you. The RS
is a good discone but it is fairly fragile. I ended up breaking several
elements on it and the only way I could get replacements was to buy
another RS antenna. After that I installed a Diamond and couldn't be
more happy with it. The diamond is well worth the extra money as
compared to the RS, in my opinion.
