Steve was thinking about one, but was given very little info by Thunderpole, so he went for the 827 instead, and has been very happy with it. If the suppliers are going to ever sell expensive new stuff, then they need to get their sales act together! Cheers Gary |

I couldn't find ANYTHING about the Mantova anywhere, not even the suppliers. The antenna has been on the market in Italy for a few years (at least six or seven). Given the lack of info, especially about their weather-survivability, I did ihdeed go for well-proven the Sirio 827 for about £30 less. And I've been very pleased with that. |
