Hi Smitty....
I have used my MA-5B for over a year. I have it 40' up, and it works
fine.
It has withstood an ice storm this winter (1/4" ice build-up), and 60+ MPH
winds a couple of times.
Highest gain is on 10 meters of course, but I've worked my fair share of
DX
on 20 and 15. Keep in mind that it functions as a 2-element Yagi only on
10, 15 and 20 meters. On 12 and 17 it is a rotatable dipole. Still, I'm
happy with it. I've been able to work just about everything I've heard
with it.

Thanks Warren!
