Last I checked, DNJ only has the turbo 5000, not the performer, H & Y may have the performer in stock. I will say this, I just purchased the megawatt 4000, and am liking it so far. I like the way the base is set up vs. The performer 5000, less weight up high, and the whip is almost 6" taller as well, putting the mega watt 4000 at just about 7ft. Tuned just as good as my performer 5000 as well. Won't handle as much power, but I am not running that kind of power any way. Just some food for thought. I love my performer 5000, I just think there are a couple of improvements that could be made IMO. They are coming out with a newer version I believe, that's why DNJ doesn't have them in stock or so it says. If they do revamp it, I will grab one. I will say that the megawatt 4000 is a great antenna for the money and so is the performer 5000. The turbo 5000 may be my next purchase as I want to compare the locking mechanism. Will keep updating on the megawatt 4000 as well. Probably start a new thread soon comparing the different sirio antennas that I have gotten. Anyway, hope this helps and god bless.

Thanks a bunch !! I am satisfied with the 5K for now, BUT, IF SIRIO is coming out with a new one,I will just wait and see . I do occasionaly run a little fire in the wire so I will wait to see what the new one might have to offer.
Thanks again.
Same here use the Performer 5000 and works amazing, not to say the Wilson 5000 was bad at all. Just seems to have lower SWR and has ability to go much higher than 40 and lower than channel 1 with SWR not changing as much. I personally wouldn't out and buy if I had a good Wilson 5000, but if ever in the market to buy another try the Performer/Turbo 5000. In my opinion a bit better for locals and night and day difference for skip talking. With the performer also love the ability to just fols down antenna if going into garage or low parking area, as opposed to the Wilson had to remove whole antenna and put in trunk. Just my opinion.
