[TowerTalk] Cushcraft XM-240 Vs Optibeam 40/30

["Rick Kourey (K4KL)" <rkourey@carolina.rr.com>]

I read where most Tower-talkians rate the performance of the Cushcraft 
XM-240 very favorably.

Cushcraft rates the XM-240 for only 1,500 watts.   Does the lower power 
rating pose any
kind of problem when you run long QSO's of 1,500 watts of RTTY through it.

Secondly, does anyone know how well the 2-element Optibeam for 40meter/30 
meter beam
compares to the 2-element Cushcraft XM-240 both in performance and 
ruggedness.
