Carl is Original owner of the XForce Brand of Amplifiers. He sold XForce some years ago. He is now building Amps under the Brand name Carl Built. I own a few of his original Xforce Amps. No complaints from me.
oh.. other frequencies i have no interest in using the Beam on. I am still in the process of dialing the tune down for the Bowl CH6 and Ch22 which is my home channel. That beam is very narrow banded. I use the Vector ground plane to talk on the other upper channels.
The 7/8 Heliax is ran from the Gamma along the boom suspended by insulated hangers past the mast pipe then suspended with coax hoisting grip socks down from the boom down to the ground. No problems turning the beam.
No SWR issues. I tuned it on a 10ft pole attached to my deck, then put it on the tower. Tune is great, SWR 1.2 at its highest.The Sirio is currently doing a great job making DX contacts. Its doing so great i might upgrade to a 10K watt Gamma
