I now have a Hy-Gain DX 77 that is on a post and hinged. I only put it up after dark. I don't do much in the summer. The antenna is real touchy on tuning and requires constant examination and maintenance. With the SteppIF, the 33 foot one vertical, I wouldn't need a tuner and it is supposed to require very little maintenance. However, it is expensive, especially with the 80 meter coil. The combo is over $1,200.
