It was indeed the Telewave ANT-150D that I had seen; I just found the ad in
the August QST.
Unfortunately, the Telewave is out of the budget for this project though.
Is anyone familiar with the Antenex YDA1364? (4 dipole array)

The best place to get that information is from the company that built it.

Any comments on having the elements on one side of the tower right on
the leg?

If you want to get better omni coverage, you'll need to attach the dipoles
to a mast and use stand-off brackets to hold it away from the tower. The
pattern will still be affected by the tower, but not as drastically.

What was the spacing between the tower legs at the mounting location of the
dipoles in your model?

I was speaking of pointing all the elements in the same direction - away from
the tower, all mounted on the same leg. You should see good gain for about 180
degrees in the direction the elements are pointed. Hard to say whet you'll get
off the back of the tower, but it might not be as bad as

No tower. Only the rooftop-mounted mast 4 dipoles, which is what I was
using at the time.

I think it has been discontinued for some time. It has all the hot

Let me be a little more specific and I'm sure the following

Me too. When the ACC RC850 audio levels are adjusted properly, the on-board
AGC gives around the 6-10db of AGC you describe. I believe it works pretty
well and is not annoying.
I used the term AGC intentionally. In the 850 the ratio is around 2:1, and
moderately slow to release. If release
