I have a chance to pick up a nice 56' Aluminum self supporting tower at a very reasonable price. That's self supporting without a big load. I'm thinking of installing it as a grounded/shunt fed verti

Dennis, Get some fiberglass rod and insulate the tower from the base. Put 8' of aluminum tubing out the top so the overall height is about 64'. Then feed it directly with coax, not through a shunt fe

Roger, your 56' tower is resonant at about 4.1 MHz - Give or take a bit. I'm modeling it with a 1' x 1' four legged tower. To shunt feed it on 3.5 MHz a #12 wire running 1' from the tower and attache

Thanks, It'd be easy to add more height ...Up to about 15' more which would be long for 75. I'd guess about 64' would be close for a quarter way on 75 (middle of the band) and very close to a half wa
