[amsat-bb] 23cm antenna for L/V

[jeff griffin]

I'm looking for a medium length Antenna for my  SAT station here in NJ.  As
space in limited at my winter home I went with a low gain  Comet CYA-126E. I
have a bit more space here, and a more restricted sky view so I'm looking
for something around 6'+ or so with 25+ elements to help me burn through the
leaves, too many freakin trees here J. I'm looking at a 25 L Directive
Systems DSE2425LYK. I once had a 55L DSE when I had more space, no room for
that here. Before I pull the trigger on the DSE25 I was wondering if anyone
could recommend something a bit larger, but smaller then the DSE45's 12 '
boom length? Thanks in advance...
