Keith, My 2 element 80 meter yagi is 130 feet up. It works very well at distances over 2500 miles, but not as effectively as my wire antennas for " local " ( inside USA ) use. My guess is that if it were lower, it would be more useable for short distances, but I didn' t install it to work locals, and I don' t imagine you have that in mind either, so I would say go as high as you can. 73, Kent - K4MK _______________________________________________ _______________________________________________ TowerTalk mailing list TowerTalk@contesting.com http://lists.contesting.com/mailman/listinfo/towertalk |
