Of course. But I fear 1: it will be some months till actually in hand.
2: Still have to meet a member off here to buy his push up pole.
3: I will only be able to give subjective data vs my Imax2000 as I have nothing to compare it against in its class.
So I fear no matter how much I like or hate it, I wont exactly have empirical data to support my position...

We'll be very patiently waiting...
Hard to imagine it not being a hell of a lot better than any vertical. That's all the data you really need!
Useless phone auto-incorrect.
I meant empirical data. Not whatever the hell my phone typed.

Though he does have a point... Its difficult to see any way possible for it not to outperform a 5/8ths fiberglass stick. Maybe if I mounted it 90deg wrong

I just thought it was funny as, who’s gonna prove its impeccable?
Of course we take your word for it. New information becomes available or testing improves, numbers change. (No harm, no foul).
Zote soap to catch’em BIG catfish. (My story and I’m sticking’ to it).
I look forward — in all seriousness — to how things go.
The design has had my interest awhile.
Im quite interested as well. Although for well over 100 dollar premium on a V Quad I'm not certain that extra element is going to give me over 100 bucks worth of improvement over the V Quad. Happily I will never be able to answer that with certainty. 11 db vs 14.5db or so which is their literature so whether that's actually dBi as discussed earlier Idk I am just quoting factory stats.
Also found this... Regarding db and power multiplication probably where the manufacturer got the X 28 etc power multiplication idea.

A 100 bucks for even a dB in output ERP ( effective radiated power) is cheap and well worth it. dB = $

Very True. Thats why this will be coupled with dollars already spent on about 800 watts.
We like dB.

I did read SOMEWHERE that his angle of radiation was terrible on those .... But begs the question is his adaptation to blame or are all V Quad style going to suffer this...
Got hold of the distributor today.
First they couldnt find my order.
Then "found" it.
My guess I got missfiled lol.
Probably be another month now.

I caught fish on Zote soap last summer, and the last time I was at the lake last month. the combination of Zote soap and chunk bait, liver and skipjack flavor gave surprisingly consistent results, noting really big but a lot of good eating size. The Zote soap or the chunk baits alone didn't seem to do as well as the combination of the two. Still wouldn't call it a power bait, but I will use this combination again.
