That may be one of the tallest , Siggi !

W6KPC had a 200+' with 6-+-6 / 6-+-6 / 6-+-6 for 20M
I recall an OH station having a similar array.


There are several stations with " h - frame" arrays for 20M :
Y   Y
Y   Y

-  RU1A                  4 x 5L  H-Frame Yagi             37 mtr up Fixed
to USA

Y    Y
Y    Y
Y    Y
-  OH4A / OH6LI   Largest 20M antenna system in Finland : 2 x 4L/4L/4L

-  N7ML       3x  3L40M on 190'.
-  W3LPL    4 fixed 2L quad on 80M/75M at 170'. NE/SE/SW/NW  and
   KC1XX     2L/2L 80M array on a 95M tower
   are among the largest on 80M in the USA.
-  7J4AAL   5L rotatable yagi for 75M may be the largest single antenna.
-  RK3AWL/RL3A has more quad elements than most.
-  YT6A       5-+-5/5-+-5/5-+-5/7L on 15M
-  KC1XX     6 x 4L 15M on 190'.
-  K4XS        6 x 6L KLM 10M yagis on 170ft.
-  KC1XX     8 x 4L 10M on 190ft.
-  PJ9W       1990, 1991  Largest temporary station.
                       Most notable:
                      160M  3L Delta loop - 1991
                      80M  3L fullsize
                      40M  4/4 fullsize   and 10M 4x5L H-frame

W0AIH is the US tower king. N5AU was also a tower king at one time.
( each with over 20 towers )

Well, Finland is well known for antennas.
Very big antennas. And OH6KN has a tower.

A very big tower. 105 meters high, (that's 315 feet! ).
On this tower he has 6 / 6 / 6 Monobanders for 20 meters,
and 6 / 6 / 6 / 6 / 6 / 6 tribanders.

Anything bigger out there ?
