I am sure that either antenna will work fine for you. Usually a larger
antenna has a narrower pattern and you should have a little less QRM from
sources outside the beam width. I think only you can decide how much 0.6dB
more gain is worth.

Hello,
has anyone have another email to reach M2inc?
I emailed Jeremy as a Sales Associate, he request me to provide him a full
adress to quotate a shippment costs and never more received an aswer from
him since october 1st.
I phoned M2 but continues recorded messages and is an international call, so
I never get an "human" voice to ask for information in M2.
And a question i asked him about his help to chose a 20 mts monobander. I am
not clear if get the 5 element (20M5) or the 4 element (20M4DX) for 20mts.
They are 8.2 dBd instead of 7.6 for the CW/low phone portion of the band in
acordance with the specifications, but this .6 more costs me more than $
500, more wind area and 3 times more weight (105 lbs for 20M5 and 36 lbs for
20M4DX).
Thanks in advance for any suggestiond and help.
73,
Jorge
