Today I uploaded a YouTube video to my channel showing how I built and raised one of my 75’ 160m verticals. I have three of these used in my 12 direction parasitic array. I show how I construct the element out of 4” irrigation tubing by splicing two lengths together, how I engineered the guy attachment points, and how I raised the element. https://youtu.be/H6SV9S25cs4 <https://youtu.be/H6SV9S25cs4> Similar methods could be used to build 80m elements. 73, de steve ve6wz _______________________________________________ _______________________________________________ TowerTalk mailing list TowerTalk@contesting.com http://lists.contesting.com/mailman/listinfo/towertalk |
