No, I had expressed two different opinions. First, I was responding to the question of whether a 3 ele beam was better for QRP than a vertical. And in an aside, I had remembered that mc was looking for a SMALL antenna for use at sea. Obviously, a yagi isn't a small antenna at HF. I was remarking that some of the antennas, like the PAC-12, work very well portable, but at sea would probably fall apart. QSB would be the least of problems in 50 foot waves. Hi.

I'm curious Eric, are you aware of many (any) 3 element yagis on oceangoing vessels? Seems like that antenna would take some severe punishment, depending on where one sailed? I can visualize serious QSB in 50 foot waves...
