Subject: [TowerTalk] 40M on TH11
Placing the 40M dipole parallel with the boom is the best approach if you can
get it up 6 or 7 feet above the TH-11.
Otherwise you can try to load the boom on 40 meters. You attach the shield to
the center of the boom and then tap the center conductor out on the boom by
using a gamma rod. I don't have the details but perhaps someone on this
reflector knows where to find the article about how to do this.

## Mount the dipole in line with the TH-11 boom. Easy to mentally add or
subtract 90 degs. Then u end up with zero interaction. You can also easily get
to the 40m choke balun, coax, feedpoint etc.
