Well guys and gals I just went thru the numbers on my 4el vee antenna and the mfg. sheets were nowhere close. I really think that most mfgs numbers are intended for rotator sizing. They only seem to give you enough to make shure your new antenna can be turned (and held) by your rotator. As for my calculations (right or wrong) I used the ARRL antenna book for reference. They may not be 100% correct but it has to be better than what I could come up with on my own. JerryC jerryc@netscope.net List Sponsor: Are you thinking about installing a tower this summer?
