Default Wellbrook Phased Array

I have been DXing with one of the trial units for the last few months on
DXpeditions.

The unit was also supplied with "head units" (AVA100) for vertical arrays,
as well as the loop element (ALA100) version.

Overall I found the loops working better, and provided deeper nulls. The
null setting stays steady over nearly the entire MW range-- a big advantage.

I expect to be doing further experimenting with this antenna at the WA coast
again later this month, including trying some alternate loop configurations
and comparisons to BOG (Beverage on ground) antennas.

Any comments on the phasing unit itself? Is it comparable performance-
wise to the units available from MFJ and Timewave or is it a cut
above?
