Which I kinda think these are.
the gain of a Yagi is driven by its boom length.
Pattern can be affected by the number of elements but gain barely if at all.
Apparent value for money is a big factor.

I had considered the CM3671 and Wineguard HD8200HD. They had a boom length of 173 and 168" and when I mentioned them to several installed each said the same thing; they are too long for a roof top and need a tower to mount. I do have access to a used tower across the street that I think I can buy but each said it would be too costly to pull it, recondition it and then put it up and it requires a permit because to properly install it, it requires a cement pad and hence triggers the permitting requirement. Seemed like too much of a hassle for now. I might do something later if not happy with the current;y planned install. Most of the homes around here had towers when the home was built and there are a number of empty towers still standing. This house had one that had been taken down and partially disassembled and parts missing so wifey in cleaing things up disposed of it.
As they do!
But, I bet she collects shoes or something.

well, no she's more into tools such as flame throwers to kill weeds, a 6 ' crow bar, recently a sledge hammer and she's been eyeing a huge chain saw. Yes, I do sleep with 1 eye open every night.
We stopped at a used car lot a couple of years ago and I was carrassing a bevy of Jag sedans including some nice XJ-12s. I turned to se if she like them and she was no where to be found. I walked around until I saw her amongst several Humvee H-1 trying to decide which color to pick and how to convince me it was even better than a Volvo. Given my wife's attitude towards other drivers (no, not road rage; just a desire to do some things like running them off the road, a citizen's arrest for running stop lights and sounds, etc.) I finally convinced her the H-1 was not for us as to afford the gas, I'd have to own the gas station.
She still thinks of them fondly, while any Jag turns my head.
Fiat X1/9 1500, the original Toyota MR2, a mint Alfa Sud TI 1.5, OR and LBNL, a 1600 Lancia Fulvia 2C.
If I won a lottery? A mid-engined Lotus 4-seater, and serious NVH treatment.
A really big win? Then it would be a Ferrari 250 GT Berlinetta Lusso.
My BIL used to sell Jags here in Canberra. I had a loan of a silver-grey 4.2L fastback E type, with the newer gearbox.
I',m retired and our current drive is a 2003/4 ACV36R Toyota Camry - Sportivo'd but no badges, nor wingm, plus a re-chipped engine! :-)
