...there is an old QST - circa 60's I think that had a picture of a
"topped" tree with a rotator and yagi on it. I would hate to have to
use those tree climbing leg dagger boots but can see where this is a
workable solution! I bet if someone did that today they would have the
entire village of environmental whackos upon them! Racing cars/bicycles have a lot of carbon products that are lightweight but very strong - while an antenna modeling dream, a non-metallic tower has financially got to be out of the question. 73, Jim, K4OJ Red wrote: In days of old, when trees grew tall and straight, many towers and other structures were built of wood. _______________________________________________ See: http://www.mscomputer.com for "Self Supporting Towers", "Wireless Weather Stations", and lot's more.
