Lucky me there is no "HOA" where I live. Mention HOA and everybody says "huh? No way". I am about 4000 feet from the nearest runway but that is for small aircraft and the 4000 feet is from my home to the *side* of runway. The tallest tree on my place is about 40 feet high and I don't want to go very much past that due to that runway AND to just keep a low profile. Have you checked with the FAA to see how high you can actually go? About 60-70' vertical with a tophat and a reasonable ground will give you a respectable signal on 160. That can be done with aluminum tubing CarlKM1H _______________________________________________ UR RST IS ... ... ..9 QSB QSB - hw? BK |
