 I am also in my first year and purchased duragilt foundation from
dadant. The reason I did so is because it comes with metal edges and
allows you to secure it to the frame with pins instead of embedding wire
into the foundation. Also, the foundation is sandwhiched on to a plastic
sheet, making it more durable.
 
So far it seems to work fine. I don't know what the communication holes
are all about, though.
