John, I guess the coupler also provides the lateral forces to keep the bottom of the mast centered in the tower? Thanks for the input. From the responses here it does seem that it's popular among the homebrew crowd. Good to know. So far I've only built one rotator: http://photo.danzimmerman.com/webimage/rotator_lg.jpg Not exactly HF ready ;-) Used it to rotate some army surplus fiberglass masts holding some VHF antennas at an apartment: http://www.n3ox.net/projects/antennas/VHFcontest2_lg.jpg 73, Dan _______________________________________________ _______________________________________________ TowerTalk mailing list TowerTalk@contesting.com http://lists.contesting.com/mailman/listinfo/towertalk |
