Probably because they were developed when signal strengths were not so high, and performance mattered, also not made for the very cost concious mass market of today :)

The tools for the 55, 90 and 120cm Fibo antennas are still alive but in storage for now, so anyone willing to buy the tools for production are welcome to contact the company that owns them.

It's not commercially viable to sell and produce this kind of antenna today, one of the reasons Fibostöp stopped production and sold all tools to Swe-Dish in Sweden.

However Swe-Dish used part of the tools to make the Fibo 90cm reflector and sub-reflector and accessoires for their military line-up of broadcasting equipment.

Today what i know they don't use the tools anymore and they are in storage here nearby.
