Subject: C3 vs C3s or C3ss
Author: Richard Thorne <rthorne@tcac.net>

Go with the C3 or maybe the C3E. Both antennas are less than 6 square feet of
load. Your tower should be able to handle it as well as the rotor. While the
C3S and SS both have similar performance, you mine as well go with the full
size C3. The C3e adds a reflector on 10 meters and improves performace on 10.
