Be sure to check the innards of the cheezy balun that CC provides.... I had one that had a cold solder joint at the center connection of the SO239. Luckily I had decided not to use it, as it's "drain
Every re-gal. tower that I've ever climbed has had nasty razorlike "burrs" all over it. If it's rusted so bad that it *had to be* regalvanized, I'd probably rethink putting it up at all. 73, Blake N4

I thought there has been previous discussion on this? I've not been able to get the right key words to get a match in the archives..... My tower sounds like a violin in during big winds and it's time
Ospreys are a listed species in FL and WI for sure, probably several other states. If my antenna fell apart because a 1.7kg bird sat on it, I'd probably rethink my antenna construction methodology...

How did it get bent in the first place, and why, after you fix it, won't it get bent again? Aluminum is the ideal material for beer cans..... 73, Blake N4GI __________________________________________
Yes, but some "basic info" you left out was how it got bent in the first place, and what would keep it from happening again.... So I asked! OK I guess I should've put a smiley thing after the beer co

I tried this.... After toiling with the mechanical (wind load!) complexities of how to mount three separate 10-15-20 yagis at reasonable separation distances on a city lot, I found that I was not onl
