- Not all EMT is that thin. For *SHORT* masts carrying *LIGHT* loads, it is perfectly acceptable. The pieces I've seen have walls that are at least 1/8" thick. I used a 10 foot piece of 1 1/2" thick-w

- As has been pointed out by others, we have a terminology problem. I have been speaking of "thick wall" EMT, which is more correctly known as rigid electrical conduit. Rigid electrical conduit is thi

- For FD and SSB SS in 1993, I used a VERY low 40m dipole with good effect. My antennas were quite modest, with an A3 at 35 feet, and a 125 foot doublet at 45 feet. (Oh to have even that now...) I str

- Depends on what part of the world you are in. Much of the US is reasonably ( +- 5 degrees ) close to agonic line (where true north and magnetic north coincide). So, if you are in the Midwest, Plains

- Sorry for the vocabulary problem. I was confused. (I will note that in aviation use, we deal with Magnetic Variation and Compass Deviation by applying the proper correction in order to fly true) Bil

- I've see a lot of messages about the proper (safe) way to climb on towers, but I'm curious to ask if anyone has any safety tips or equipment for climbing on the roof of a house. Here's my scenario. W
