The antenna went together perfectly and the material as well as the workmanship is of high quality.
I did have a German Quad 10 years ago and by comparison the mechanical as well as the technical design of the GB Quad is definately far better.
That said, the GB Quad is an obvious successor of the legendary US made "Lightning Bolt" Quad which is no longer available since quite some time.
There are only some rather negligible differences as far as I can tell.
A great solution are the wire holders as well as the aluminium alloy 1,6 mm wire. Once cut and handled correctly it does a super fine job.
The fibreglas tubing fits into one another super well and the boom as well as the HD boom/mast plate are really solid.
The antenna comes with all needed instructions and the manual is held in both metric and US messures. Infact, the original Lightning Bolt manual is part of the instruction sheets.
I do feed the Antenna with single feeding lines for either of the bands, using an 8x remote switch.
After the first tests the Quad performs super well. SWR is no issue and the F/B and F/S performance is really outstanding.
The GB Quad is definately is a great performing antenna!
