I think Dick is referring to *horizontal* (level) alignment of
the elements - not "tuning" the elements for SWR/Frequency.  A
saddle with no reference point results in a physically "non-flat"
antenna where as some other manufacturers provide element mounting
that is factory aligned so all the elements are in the same plane.

Forwarding this message from Ken at JK Antennas-
"Dick,
Not sure how you came up with such a weird idea, but here is the correct 
information--
The Navassa5 comes pre-drilled and pre-aligned with elements. No field 
adjustments necessary. Its just as simple as putting them together. The tips 
are all precut for each band.

Happy Thanksgiving !

Correct me if I'm wrong, but the JK antennas don't  have pre-aligned
elements like the Force 12 and Skyhawk have.  I for  one hate running back
and
forth wasting time trying to align each  element.
