Anybody out there using an optical encoder for a position indicator. My old Heathkit weather station used such a beastie for the weather vane. They are full rotation with no stops, totally sealed and

Mauri, What you say is true -- unless you have a HAZER tower. At least it is for 20-10 m quads. Alternatively an EZ-way tilt over tower makes the job easy too. Unfortunately, EZ-way towers haven't be

Ed, I think the orginal question is how do you know there are not deed restrictions. It is like trying to prove a negative. You can never do it with absolute certainty. As you are probably aware, bei

Guy, IMHO the public is in a perpetual state of paranoia these days. A posted sign implying any kind of danger will only feed this. It appears that just the thought of something even remotely dangero

Just for curiosity, how many FLA homes can withstand 110MPH winds? I certainly wouldn't care if my tower stayed up, if the house didn't. There was a documentary on TV after the last big hurricane dow
