## are you sure those full size 80m eles will handle any amount of wind ?
Who made the yagi ? You are very close to the coast, so I assume you have no
ice or snow loading. Ever seen a full size 80m REF loaded up with heavy wet
snow,
thats something to see.

After much pain and suffering, we have immutable proof that things this large &
designed properly can survive on mountain tops with ice & snow.....
of course, your mileage will vary, depending on the engineering/budget
decisions you chose to make!
