Excellent repeater antenna. Time Owned: more than 12 months.
I have had this antenna up 72 feet on top of a tower for over 5 years and it has performed flawlessly. The UHF repeater, VE7ZIG, has 50 watts out of the duplexer into 7/8th heliax feeding the antenna. The gain of this antenna far more than makes up for a 2 db insertion loss in the duplexer. The area is fully covered in most directions with a clear shot to the south of about 20 miles. I'm very happy I picked this antenna before trying any others.

Best Repeater Antenna I ever Had Time Owned: more than 12 months.
I had a Diamond X500HNA up for over 2yrs and had one problem after another Had to take it down for repairs 4 times in a little over two yrs.

I then switched to the Hustler G6-440 and have never looked back.

When you first look at the Hustler G6-440 you can tell its going to take the wind.

The unit does not come with cheap mounting brackets like the other "so called" repeater antenna's

The N-Connector in mounted on the side of the bowl shape Bottom so no moisture can attack this antenna's N-connector from the inside.

I have also used a friends repeater that had been using the Hustler G6-440 for years and years with no problems what so ever and thats what you want in a repeater antenna.

Even well know repeater field supervisor "Zed Roberts" stated for a single band the Hustler G6 is hard to beat for performance and wind tolerance.

Excellant. Have used for over a year on my 440 Repeater & just Time Owned: more than 12 months.
Have enjoyed this Antenna very much as it has performed over a year on my 440 repeater. no problems & at 35 feet, the range is 16-17 miles. Very happy with it.
