I think we sometimes concentrate too much on looking at antenna heights that will maximize gain at certain take-off angles, and forget about the nulls. Those deep elevation nulls can be "killers" if

Of course he did, but there is no way to fill the nulls with a single beam. You can mount it on a crankup and search vertically for the best signal, but that seems to be more expensive to me and not

Plus - the second antenna might not need to cover all the bands if he chooses the heights carefully. Steve G3TXQ _______________________________________________ ______________________________________

Greetings, One of the parameters mentioned here has been towers on flat ground. What effect does unlevel ground/elevation have on this? I live in the Mtn.s of VA. My elevation is appox. 1400 ft and I

The wind load capacity of a 90 foot freestanding tower compared to a 70 foot freestanding tower is so greatly different that I'm not sure I would put the 90 footer into the "cost-effective" category.

Regardless of the antenna height the nulls and nodes in the pattern will be in a constant state of change as far as being optimum or degrading. 73 Roger (K8RI) _______________________________________

Wayne, the ridge should give you additional gain especially in the area that slopes away from your antenna site and that is a good thing. If I were you I'd consider using a beam with more gain than t

The Hex is a 2 element antenna. We used one at J6 and from there it was more than adequate. It was similar to a 2 element SteppIR. If you could get a 3 or 4 element beam I think you would be happier.

"The F/B on the Hex is not great" It is adequate for what it is, a 2 element shortened wire beam. However, it still has better FB than a Steppir on 10M <grin>. Best Regards, Jim N9WW James Chaggaris
