Hi there
Made up my mind now, gonna stack a KT34XA together with a 4el for 40m

The KT34XA will be at 30m, thats 100ft
the 4el  (klm4el or M2 4el    same size) will be 20ft lower..

The tower will be used as a toploaded verticl, i've done it with a
mosley PRO96
on top and it resonates vy well on 160, using gammawire, taken out of
ON4UN's book
(his graph was perfect)

Now the question, should i ground the elements of the 40m beam, i've
seen passing
messages abt grounding elements and their influence..

But i don't wanna spoil the KT34XA performance..

So what is ur opinion abt this???

The same tower will support a 4sq for 80m hanging from 4 fiber arms if
everything
goes right


Furthermore i would like to get the email adresses from KLM and M2 to
get some quotes
in...


Tnx fer input
Johan
