357, consider this. If you're the least bit concerned with wind and weather at your location...the New Vector is probably not for you.

The GM, Vector, and Imax are higher gain, but the A99 is not that far behind. If you compared them close in the real world you might not even be able to tell the difference at times.

Below are two models. The New Vector 4000 vs. A99 with both in Free Space. I added an overlay of these two with patterns compared.

I also posted my real world antenna comparison results showing RX average S units from 5 of my well known local buddies. The A99 did show up last as expected, but the report does not show a big signal difference among them all...at my location.
