Lightning recently destroyed the Comet GP-15 (6m/2m/70cm) at the top of my tower's mast. I'm looking for a replacement that is more mechanically stout, one that might stand a chance at surviving the

Even side mounted near the top but upside down? Lots of commercial 2 way sticks are mounted that way sharing a common side arm. Carl KM1H _______________________________________________ ____________

The problem is that the 24' mast is loaded with other VHF and UHF antennas that would be degraded. If I moved it down to the top of the tower itself, I'd lose 24' of elevation. Doug K4AC ____________

I had problems keeping a Diamond tribander on the top of my mast, it was simply too flimsy to survive 100' above the tree line on my exposed hilltop. Solution was to side mount upside down and loose

Put a 109" stainless steel whip at the top of the mast and ground it to the mast. It's a low cost method that might divert some of the lightning energy EMP...all bets off on a direct hit. Some guys p

With 24' of mast above the thrust bearing, I'd like to avoid adding any more height and weight (read lever arm) above the top vertical. I'm considering the multiband j-pole made out of copper pipe si
