I am in the process of erecting my US Tower TX489MDPL. The primary antennas will be an AZ/EL satellite array mounted at top with a 6 meter yagi mounted below. I have a discone antenna and TV antenna which I would like to mount below the upper antennas. These antennas will not be rotated. I need to build or buy some sort of side arm assembly which will extend out and extend downeard below the top of the upper section so that the antennas do not interfere with the satellite array and 6 M horizontal Yagi. Obviously this bracket must attach at the top like the coax side arms and cannot interfere with antennas above or the lowering of the tower. Has any one else seen a good configuration to do this? I am considering using some UniStrut to fabricate this if I cannot find a suitable off the shelf solution. Any pros or cons to using UniStrut on a tower?? Can I buy galvanized UniStrut?? -- Joe Leikhim Jleikhim@nettally.com "tv dinner by the pool, i'm so glad i finished school" -F.Zappa 1967 "The Revolution will NOT be televised" -Gil Scott Heron -- FAQ on WWW: http://www.contesting.com/towertalkfaq.html Submissions: towertalk@contesting.com Administrative requests: towertalk-REQUEST@contesting.com Problems: owner-towertalk@contesting.com |
