As mentioned in a previous article, the Force C-3S is a very robust Yagi and its design is ideal for extending coverage up to five bands by application of linear resonator techniques. One of the attractive design features is that the Force 12 antenna uses no traps, a buzz word for quite a while among serious DXers. From a mechanical and RF point of view the manufacturers deserve a lot of applause. A few of us in this area have had our C-3S Yagis survive the regular strong and gusty storms that are typical of winters near the most southern tip of Africa.
