Anyone here have any experience with the Force 12 C-3SS tri-band beam? Someone's offering me a slightly used one for not a whole lot of money.

Nice antenna. No experience with it myself. If you're not going to get it at least 50 feet in the air, I'm not sure I would bother. JMO

Even if you can only get it 30-35 feet in the air, it'll work better than a dipole or vertical. Good antenna. I've got its full size brother.
