We are looking for a rugged 2-meter beam suitable for installation at the
300 foot level
on a 500 foot broadcast tower. This will be uswed to link a 440MHz sytem to
one on
2-meters about 80 miles away. Looking for suggestions for something more
stout than
the standard Cushcraft/Maxrad
Take aook at the Sinclair 206EB (end mounted beam) or
or the SRL 250 which is designed to heavier icing and hoarfrost conditions
occur.

The DB224 has only two standard patterns: omnidirectional and offset.
My club has one of these antennas at a packet node, and it is ideal for

to get. If yours is broken just get to a Motorola shop and order the
replacement. You may even be able to order the part direct from Motorola.
Otherwize, you would just end up spending time hacking the radio and gaining
Regardless of your intended application, a good, heavy duty beam that you
can rely on is a Sinclair.
A Cushcraft is a huge waste of time and energy, in my opinion. By and large
I've found all gamma matched beams to be poor performers - period.

Leave it omni and call it good.
With that particular antenna in an omni configuration, it has 6 dB gain.
Point all the elements in the same direction, you'll get 9 dB gain. So, the
biggest change you can get is 3 dB. If we assume one would split the
difference by aiming two elements in
