After installing some Hustler Spirit HD antennas in snow and ice conditions, and visiting the site to see several inches of radial ice everywhere, I became a dealer for them.
They are built after the order to frequency. I ordered a 420 9 dB HD Omni, and a 440 9 dB Omni, and the 420 antenna was physically longer when compared side by side. Makes sense, but it's nice they are not using a one size fits all fiberglass case. I won't have to be worrying about replacing the Spirit Antennas for a long time, while I enjoy good coverage from the antennas. I have a statement that I always share: "When you buy quality, it only hurts once."

Built similar to Stationmasters without the "charging you for the name" price. http://www.new-tronics.com/main/html/base_spirit.html Dan N8DJP --- In Repeater-Builder@yahoogroups.com, "W3ML" <w...@...> wrote: > > > Now I realize that the DB type antenna is the best, but we do not have 800 bucks to buy one. You can do FAR better than that price. Primus Electronics, Joliet, IL. 800.435.1636. I have no connection with them other than being a very satisfied customer. Laryn K8TVZ
