I am in the process of planning my antennas for a new qth. There is a 55 ft
crank-up already in place with a Force12 C31 xr at 60 ft. I am hoping to
shunt feed this tower for 160 and 80.
I'm sure this has been done before, but I am concerned about feeding the
tower and the potential for less than perfect electrical continuity. As an
alternative I have considered running a parallel conductor from the top of
the tower and grounding it at the base.
If you have tried this arrangement, please share your experiences. Any
feedback is greatly appreciated.
73s and see you in the pile-ups
