I've assembled Magnum 4-15/4-10 and EF 2-40/4-10 antennas
recently.
First element for 20 m took me 15min, the other 3 el 10-11m
each. This includes reading manual. 40m takes little bit
longer, but still not too bad considering that you get 2
yagi ants. Since I was not doing 40m alone, I have not been
checking exact time.
15/10m elements can be assembled in 10/15min per element,
and boom takes a few minutes extra.
