This one? Cushcraft A14810S its either vertical or horizontal, some time in<br>
the past I believe bob had setup his beams to go vertical or horizontal<br>
with inexpensive rotors, I could be wrong.<br>

Does Cuhshcraft still make the 10 element Vertical / Horizontal beam?<br>
That's what Bob uses. He just took off the vertical elements. It's not the<br>
most optimized antenna in the world, but I think it might work better than<br>
an antenna made for satellite work.<br>
I did a search for it, but didn't come up with anything. You might be able<br>
to find something used on QRZ. It certainly would be less expensive than<br>
the M2<br>

nightmare when I did so with the 5element beam from K1FO. But I don't have<br>
the space to put 2 vertical and 2 horizontal, because I'd like to do the<br>
same with a 70cm circular polarized beam. Oh well I'll we'll see what<br>
happens when the time comes.<br>
