Sirio SY-4
We decided to try a Sirio SY-4 a few weeks back and had nice results.
4 element yagi on a approx 16 ft or 5 meter boom length .
I took it right back down as too much windload with all the other antennas on the ham radio tower .
SWR after minor adjustment was less than 1.2-1 across ch 1-40 on USA band. Nice front to back and side rejection in the 5 hrs it was up. I took it back down till next spring when the Taller tower gets redone after 25 years up in the air . I re did the smaller tower this year and added a HAZER Tram System as seen in pictures.
We was lucky enough to catch a band opening comparing our IMAX 2000 with top at 60 ft to the SY-4 at 51 ft .
4-5 S unit difference in the band opening with SY-4 Superior.

Re: Sirio SY-4
Hi William,
Welcome to the forum. Great username :-).
I have a Sirio 4000 Hi-Power antenna that I used on the CB / 11m bands and it works so well I have kept it for 10m use. They make good quality antennas at very good rates...

Re: Sirio SY-4
Well made the Sirio antennas and indeed if there are any troubles with it then Sirio have a great approach to aftercare. As Dave says, welcome here to the forum and great success with the antenna.
