that Well, you said it - "I keep thinking". Climbing is about 90% mental so you're psyching yourself out. It's a matter of relaxing your mind and quit listening to your conscious self. Masts (even pi

Actually it's more of a vertical load, not sideways. While that's true, most guyed installations have the guy attachments in the direct vicinity of the top of the tower so the mast forces come out at

Another thing you can do is to put the ground rods in the ground horizontally. You'll still get half of a hemisphere of influence which might be better than a short rod. Cheers, Steve K7LXC TOWER TEC

Partly depends on the 40M antenna. F12 wants 12 feet separation while I've used CC 402CD's as close as 6-7 feet with little problems. The only 40M antenna with enough problems to warrant turning it 9
