FEATURES
The 6M5X is the latest computer optimized version of our popular 6M5. The
6M5X is two feet longer but front to back and gain are noticeably improved.
We just made a good thing better maintaining low wind load and great
performance for its size. It will compliment the rest of your antenna system
and not overload your tower. Quick and easy to assemble, it is also great
for mountain topping, grid expeditions and DXpeditions. The 6M5X features
the same machined aluminum element mounting blocks, and sealed "T" match
block,that all M2"s use. The 6M5X is perfect for the Ham trying 6 meters for
the first time or the seasoned vet who may stack them for lower angle of
radiation or even some EME use. A tuning chart is included in the manual for
the FM band.

The OB12-4 is a high effective Yagi for the classical four bands 40, 20, 15
and 10m, four monobanders on one boom.
    * The OptiBeam high Q air coil reduces the length of the 40m elements
nearly lossfree down to a little bit below convenient 15 meters.
    * Due to the patented OptiBeam „direct coupled driver feed system“ and
the especially developed „40m decoupling stubs“ a non compromise feed with a
single     50 Ohm coaxial cable is achieved.
