Its in the I-10k category of antennas. Well built out of very good materials, and because of that it is also a bit heavier than some of its competitors. It will perform the same as any other 5/8 wavelength antennas out there.

You put it up, it should last.

To me they are a bit pricey but like DB said, they are built to last.

Check out Mr.Coily's "Excalibur .64 Base" antenna...

I have one of these, and they are built to last, plus Dan is pretty good about getting orders filled fast...All antennas are "made to order" meaning he doesn't always have a bunch just lying around waiting on someone to order...They are a bit pricey, but made to last.

This is my Excalibur day after I put it up and we got a freezing rain storm blow in that coated my antenna and tower in about a inch of ice by the time it was over....Didn't hurt the antenna one bit.
