I've been following the R8 guying discussion with interest, because I
may be in the market for a vertical in the next year or so. While I have
read the reviews for the R8 at eHam Forum, I especially trust the
experience of the hams here on the K3 list. I presently have a SkyHawk
tribander at 60ft. However, an upcoming move to a new home may leave
that combination out of the running with some sort of vertical the only
option. So, I'm not expecting any vertical to equal the SkyHawk, but I
would like to get a general feel for the mechanical quality and general
performance of the R8.
Thanks in advance.

Seriously though, near the top and in the middle work well for me in high wind
condition.
