Here's one for you guys. I'm putting up a Rohn 25 at the house.
Attaching at 28 feet up with a bracket and another few sections
to top out at 60 feet.
Would there be a advantage to using a thick (1 to 1.5 inch) piece
of rubber to separate the house from the bracket?
Reinforced, hard rubber like several layers of fire hose.
My concern of course is noise.
I would be using bolts and washers for the connection and
bonding at least 4 rafters together with 2x4's and 2x8's.
Also thought about neoprene washers like what is used in
4X4 truck bodies.
Has anyone had experience CORRECTING a noise problem?
I will spin a Mosley CL-36 with a Yaesu 450. The rotor is a tad bit
under rated but wont be moving it much. Yaesu says 10
and Mosley is a 11 for wind load.
Also K factor is 100 for rotor / 120 for antenna.
Again, not going to be spinning this thing like a top.
A opinions welcomed.
Thanks and 73
