That's why I prefaced it with "I don't know about using it on a directional".
The main point being that the omni was the only part that survived the impact
with the ground. The clamps held, matter of fact it wasn't even crooked.
Everything else was destroyed, even the boards in the aluminum enclosures.

The omni was the only part still attached once it hit the ground. The

Watch closely when AF5 attached to railing...crossed hose clamps.
Guess they have no strong winds other that what I hear on the video.
