Thinking about a crank-up/tilt-over self supporter (US Tower HDX555,
Tashjian LM-354HD). What are some common practices for using low loss coax
(1/2" superflex, lmr400uf?) from the top of the bottom tower section to
the antennas at the top of the tower (in my case a vhf-uhf-microwave
array)? For tilt-over purposes, at the bottom of the tower, I'd like to
use my existing 7/8 and 1&5/8 in. heliax from the shack via a trench up to
the top of the bottom section (22ft). I'm concerned about the movement and
potential damage of the hardline during the tilt-over and tilt-up
process. Thoughts and advise?
