I have a chance to buy a used two element linearly loaded "shortie-
fourty" beam at a low price. It is a KLM 40M-2B. I am a CW only
operator, so bandwidth isn't of much concern to me. I would be putting
it up at 75 ft.

I would like people's general opinions about this beam compared to
other two element loaded 40m beams. Are there any endemic shortcomings
with the KLM beam (other than the company is out of business - M2 now
gives some support)? Do the lexan element-to-boom saddles hold up?
