81. Re: [TowerTalk] Ground rods with jack hammer drill (score: 1)
Author: "Barrie Smith" <barrie@centric.net>

I had an electrician friend drive an 8' ground rod for my K9AY loop a couple of months ago using an electric Hilti unit that hammers quite vigorously. Lots of rock in my soil. It took him quite a whi

I will soon be placing a Bencher Skyhawk, which weighs 75 lbs, atop an HG-52SS. I've had a hand winch on that tower for the last several years. Due to old age and deterioration, I'd like to start usi

I, too, have a Skyhawk atop my 64 foot Trylon. Before you hoist the Skyhawk consider whether you might want to shunt-feed the tower on 160 or 80. If so, you can improve the capacitive top-hat effect

I recently put a Bencher Skyhawk atop a HG-52SS. At the moment, I'm using a hand-winch to raise and lower the tower. Since I'm lazy, I'd like to install an electric winch. The beam itself weighs 75 l

85. [TowerTalk] Replacing cable on crankup (score: 1)
Author: "Barrie Smith" <barrie@centric.net>

Is there an easy way to replace the cable on a standing, crankup tower? It seems to me that it may be possible to attach the new cable to the old and then thread the new cable through the pullys. Or

Well, yes, it would. However, and this may not be good thinking on my part, I was thinking of attempting this with the tower fully retracted. 73, Barrie, W7ALW _______________________________________

Steve: I'm certainly glad to hear that news! I've looked at the cable several times as I've been cranking the tower up and down, and I see no sign of damage or rust. Excepting, perhaps, me, things do

Yes, I bought quite a number of them several years ago from SSB Electronics. They are the easiest N connector to install I've ever seen. 73, Barrie, W7ALW ____________________________________________

I actually put up the Skyhawk on AD3F's recomendation, plus reading the information on Bencher's website. I have no frame of reference, since this was my first HF beam, ever. It doesn't play as my qu

This chat about Zero Five verticals got me curious, so I went to their site. I discovered a 57' vertical that "looks" good, so I called the number. The website says he's open on Saturday, but no luck

Hello: Interested in any opinions, good, bad or ugly, on the M2 40M4 LLDD. I'm considering a 40M beam and this one looks the best (for the money) that I can find. Others may have different opinions a
