Dan, I'm not taking a position pro or con the Mosley... My nearby friend has a TA36 with 40M kit up for 20 years, I've lost 3 antennas in the same span... And he gets out fine... But... After the ice

When I install my new relay box on the tower, I will have a couple of unused UHF connectors... Anyone know of a source for the plastic caplugs that fit over the connectors. Plan would be to cover the

Oh bull!!! I have a TH7 and it is (was) a great performing antenna... Until the traps failed. It also didn't work if there was any ice or snow on it. Kept it going until a major ice storm damaged it.

Re Brian... I don't know him... My dealings with him have been without problem... I suspected he might be a bit odd... His "low profile" is strange for someone selling a product... However, YO is a t

1. Check fencer ground... 2. Do a walk along the line at night and look for any discharges... 3. Use your noiseblanker... They usually work very well with fencers... Especially if they are adjustable

I've noticed that here too. Often my antennas on a 150' tower will be unusable, but antennas on a nearby 50' are relatively quiet. All are monoband aluminium yagis. Mel... VE2DC _____________________

I hear this all the time... Yes 48' is better but with 5 el on 40 you can get much better bandwidth performance than with 4 elements on the same boom length. I think this misconception comes from th

I use the MARC program... It has calculations for 2" mast and 3" mast... How should one calculate intermediate mast sizes... For example, 2 3/8" which is pretty common? (and what I use) _____________

I asume you tried rocking the rotor... The brake wedge can be pinched and not retract in a wind. Had a similar problem a few weeks ago. Turned out to be the connector on the new T2Xs... One of the pi

I put up a small interlaced yagi for 12/17 that weighs very little. I thought I was way over designing by putting up a T2X. It's been up about 8 months and I've already had it down once for maintenan

why would anyone want to purchase, buy, or build the larger antenna? Depends what you mean by "better". For example, I use a hy-gain 205. I've often heard it argued that the boom is too short for 5
