Hi Bill,

Go for the beam and if you have enough room try a sloper for 160m. 75m and 
40m.  I have a 55' crankup with a TA-33 and an Alpha Delta  sloper for 160m. 
75m and 40m they play nice together.

Hi Everyone!

I own an Icom 7600 and a Zero-Five 43' vertical.

I would like your opinion. Do I trade in my Icom 7600 and buy a Yaseu 
FTDX-5000D or should I buy a tower and beam and put that up. I think the 
tallest tower I can put up is 50' due to being close to an airport.

Also I live near Chicago, who can I get to help install the tower?

Thanks!
