I was on a bit for the California quake and a LOT for the Mexico City quake. N0AX stresses the importance of knowing procedure and I agree that it is important. Absolutely NOTHING replaces being lou

Hi Jeff, You are indeed fortunate. If I were your insurance adjuster, you wouldn't be covered because I am willing to bet the tower specs were exceeded somewhere. I have listened to a LOT of tower h

equipment Bill, I am glad you were able to solve this telephone interference problem, but you solution is do a disservice to the rest of us. Think of the poor guy who lives a stone's throw from 100

It is STILL VERY IMPORTANT to check the regulations. Any ham tower you see could have been installled before the strict regulations went into effect. (My case, exactly.) Or, it could simply be an ill

House to house is about 50 feet, but I have my 20 meter tower between the houses so the ends of my elements are just about right on the property line which would put them about 20 feet (horizontal d

Hi Mike, I can certainly sympathize with your desire to know how to correctly design your tower installation so it won't fail. We had quite a thorough discussion here a couple of months ago where it

This is kinda what I was trying to say, also, in my inept way. (W7NI) The tax preparation program comparison falls down a little also because I can't see how an innocent bystander can get maimed or

One topic that seems to be missing from all the tower discussions I see here lately is the fact that it is not simply the number of square feet of antenna that loads the tower, but how those square f

My advice would be to abondon the water pipe idea. Water pipe is notariously weak for this application. It is made for conducting fluids from point to another, not for building antenna supports. You

Hi Bruce, Here is an example of what I mean when I say I haven't seen the calculations I think we need. Assume a Rohn 25 tower with the rotator mounted in the normal place, about 3 feet below the to

I'd say it depends a lot on how much you crank it up and down. Some people use motorized crankups so they can keep it down most of the time to avoid offending neighbors and protect it from the wind.

I'm rolling on the floor now, too! I could see someone actually thinking all you would have to do to maintain a crankup is grease the sections where they slide against each other . . . can't you? I r

There are enough insidious SPECIAL problems involved with crankups that common sense and careful thinking are NOT enough to keep you out of trouble. We heard one pretty horrible crankup story here on
