Somebody could conclude from this that you should not bother grounding your equipment in the shack if you using a dipole or another antenna that does not work against ground. However I can think of s

Most of us have that already in the form of out coax feedline's outer conductor. Typically this is grounded at the antenna and also in the shack. Am I right? Best regards - Brian Carling AF4K Crystal

Thank you Jack, It is similar to where I was heading, but I am planing to use one set of guy wires and a slightly smaller base. If you have guy wires the size of the base is not that critical. I have
I am starting to use something called Liquid Electrical Tape. I also like Coaxseal. Best regards - Brian Carling AF4K Crystals Co. 117 Sterling Pine St. Sanford, FL 32773 Tel: +USA 321-262-5471 _____
I'm getting all the drawings done by a designer. Meeting TI-222 should not be a problem. Going with 3 sections of 25G in a 4' x 4' x 4' concrete base. Does anyone have any ready made wind calculation
Many thanks Bud. I will need to review which version they are using. Yes I had someone pointing me in the direction of a freestanding tower but I think I may go to using guys. It's either that or tra

The 28 day cure references to the design strength of the concrete. Keeping it wet is good for slabs and other thin pieces of concrete, for a foundation it doesn't really do much. I have been engineer
Terry, You asked about the rotor and if it will fit and didn't look like you had the dimensions. Well here you go. Will the 1/2 inch difference matter? That is something you'll have to measure. I hav

Would you be willing to provide the coding for a file that will work with YO? Bob, YO can only model Yagis with straight elements. In addition, older versions cannot model an OWA because DE and D1 ar
I have updated my OWA writeup with an example with a narrowband pattern. Bending the driven element offers much less benefit for such designs, which I believe may be common. http://ham-radio.com/k6st
