Tape a wire along the mast to the bottom of the tower to ground.

Subject: Topband: reliable contact among mast sections

Hello all,
I want to shunt fed my 3-sections Westtower on 160m. The mast is
additionally painted with zinc colour and I may have a problem now with good
connections of the 3 sections among each other. Of course I could remove the
zinc colour from the parts of the mast, where the sections would have
contact, but in any case there are movement of the sections in the wind
making the contacts doubtful, so i'm afraid that the sections contact is not
good enough also with removed zinc colour. Maybe here is someone on the
reflector having an idea how to solve the problem and getting reliable
contacts between mast sections?

Many Thanks for any idea,
73  Jo, DK2PH
