361. [Towertalk] Anyone have Trylon Titan self supporting? Curious as to quality. (score: 123)
Author: k2av@contesting.com (Guy Olinger, K2AV)

I have a Trylon 80' self supporting. But if AN Towers had been in business when I did mine I probably would have gone with them for various reasons. The thing that bothers me most about the Trilon's

I just went and looked at how to unsubscribe. It is not at all intuitive. One has to read, and comprehend, the fine print. The current setup is NOT user friendly. Mostly people will get it or go sear

An alternate some may wish to consider is a program called WinProxy from a company called Ositis. It is a firewall. I have it on the computer that talks to the DSL modem. It filters incoming html, em

Yeah, except his resonance goes WAY down. This is a three band hookup, three pieces of coax to three separate DE's within a foot of each other. Caution: I find in my modeling of the C31 that what is

365. [Towertalk] Force 12 XR-5 spacing with KLM 40 and 80 (score: 123)
Author: k2av@contesting.com (Guy Olinger, K2AV)
Date: Wed, 8 May 2002 23:52:58 -0400
No way you get me to put a five band 20-10 antenna in between 40 & 80 antennas spaced only 12 feet. Something is bound to be detuned, either way, because the booms as well will be close to something

Force 12 makes a staggered 5 band (XR5) and an interlaced 30/40. Go to their web page. http://force12inc.com/XR5-intro.htm and http://force12inc.com/F12-specs-ef-r1-0.htm near the bottom. worked

They have steps and various gizmo's to help out with that. For a price of course. If they had been in business when I built my self-standing, I probably would have gone with them. Guy. pain to off, o

Steve's a Klingon. Thought everybody knew. Seventh cousin to Worf. He never climbs down towers, just jumps off. Sometimes heaves antennas to the top when he's in a hurry. Bit of a show-off, actually.

I wouldn't fix it. It's complained to you loud and clear about the overload. I'd call it "weakened". 73, Guy. helpless and be the moist loam had been you whole in the few out and

Date: Thu, 30 May 2002 23:47:56 -0400
Moving the center of a 75/80 dipole from 65 feet to 75 feet is highly unlikely to change anything discernibly except the feed impedance of the dipole, and that not much. Are you thinking that 75 feet

What appears to be missing in the picture you painted is the usual choking device to decouple the unbalanced feedline from what otherwise is a balanced antenna. One could construct a balanced feedlin

Many varieties of N connectors. PL259's are all the same size as far as mating to the coax without an adapter. N connectors vary greatly in the kind of coax they mate, there are many UG numbers that

Author: k2av@contesting.com (Guy Olinger, K2AV)
Date: Mon, 1 Apr 2002 10:44:51 -0500
One of the great unverified assumptions of low-angle propagation is that smooth, sharp decrease of gain from a horizontal antenna as the angle goes down in the last handful of degrees. This lack of v

Tucked away in many small corners of the specifications for bases and such, are such quaint phrases as undisturbed earth, among others. All of which make the right stuff not quite as "prefab-able" as

Date: Tue, 9 Apr 2002 10:39:05 -0400
One thing I do NOT see often in these collapse discussions, is discussion of the merits of self supporting towers in these tight situations. A guyed tower is made of the same stuff at 0-10 feet as it

That double wound stuff could be bought from Air Dux. Two of them made a dandy 4:1 HF balun. The Heath was the only one I remember you could buy complete with supports. Some folks removed the stuff f

A fall from 10 feet up the tower onto concrete can kill you, bust your head open like a watermelon. Human body is just not designed for falling onto hard things. The most scared I have ever been on a

Appearances can be deceiving (both ways). Look how strong a spider web is and how tiny and thin. Also do not confuse the stuff that F12 sends with the antennas with the cheeep jjjunkkk you get in the

You are right about HIGH ANGLE close in signals. Rotating it does not make much difference. There IS a difference at low angles. You WILL have a dickens calling stations in EU if your rotatable 40m d

That's SALT water. And you need to be right up close. And the magical difference has to do with vertically polarized antennas. Fresh water doesn't do much except usually get rid of ground clutter in
