I JUST GOT ME ONE OF THOSE SIRIO 4-ELEMENT BEAM ANTENNAS, FOR $150.00 SHIPPED, YOU CAN'T BEAT THE PRICE AND I'VE HAD THE 4-ELEMENT MACO BEAMS BEFORE AND I CAN HONESTLY SAY I SEE A DIFFERENCE ON RECEIVE AND TRANSMIT. WE HAD SOME 75 MPH WINDS HERE ALREADY AND ITS STILL UP THERE LOOKING 7 TALKING GREAT! BUILT STRONG TOO! JUST MY OPINION..... DAVE

I have dealt :D with this gentleman before and he was very quick shipping. I see he has maco beams 4sale on ebay in his ebay store under palcoelectronicsdotcom

Did maco stop making beams?

i agree pony--- i looked up his site "palcoelectronics" i plan on going with the 4 element maco and going horizontal,,, it's the rotor that gets costly !!

Hi H&Y Electronics who have a link on this forum supply Sirio 3 element & 4 element Yagi beams high quaility build. Cheap cheap prices.
These beams are tryed and tested, excellent results and durable to the weather. In my opinion equal if not better to the Maco,
considering the difference in cost. SIRIO SY- 4 ELEMENT YAGI BEAM around $185.00

H & Y Electronics is another name for (the metal a penny is made of) Electronics. They handle both Sirio and Maco products.

Zinc? Oh, I get it... no, they're not really C0PPER anymore, too valuable for USA coinage since it's becoming worthless just like Blowbama wants it.

I wonder why no one is making a copy of the old superscanner antenna. That antenna really talks well and doesn't take up much space. Shoot they even have a version of that antenna on ships these days for that fancy AEGIS radar system. Guess you could say that the superscanner was the first popular phased array antenna.

Was the Super Scanner the antenna that had 3 verticals and used 2 at a time for directionality?

Yes it was.

I don't doubt it. Indeed for what it was did a pretty decent job. Although I don't think sales were ever through the roof. For the cost of them a guy could do a quad and have not only have dual polarity, but more forward gain and F/B & F/S performance. I also don't think it would be that hard to reproduce. The switch box would probably be the only bugger and IIRC you can find the schematic on the internet.

Hello; I have a super scanner and the relay box on the antenna gave up so i disconected it and ran 3 equal length coaxes from the elements down to a 3 position coax switch,don't know what the theory says but it works just fine on RX and TX and swr nice and low without having to fool it with a matcher,been this way for 2* years sometimes running 1000 watts PEP Regards warlock35po

[501dallastx]

What has happened to signal engineering? Has anyone heard if there coming back, with there Quad antenna's?

[crazy_cooter]

Maco has changed owners but are still in business, Google "Maco antenna"
and you'll find them at Majestic Com

Maco has always been Majestic....Majestic Antenna Corporation=MACO

Yes it was.
The superscanner used ONE leg at a time for directionality, and TWO legs as a reflector, or was switchable to run all 3 legs at once like an omni-directional

They are gone but Lightning Antennas has basically replaced them. Check at http://www.lightningantennas.com/Quads/

[KP68]

If Signal Engineering is gone they ought to take down their webpage...lol
