Author: nielsen@oz.net (Bob Nielsen)
Date: Fri, 4 Oct 2002 10:15:02 -0700
When I lived in the Los Angeles area, we had a club at work which put up a 40 ft tubular tower with a HAM-3(?) rotator and TH6DXX (also a ringo ranger 5 ft above the yagi). The tower was roof-mounted

23. [Towertalk] yagi spacings (score: 1)
Author: nielsen@oz.net (Bob Nielsen)
Date: Tue, 15 Oct 2002 09:59:00 -0700
A 2-3/4 mast won't fit through the tube of a 25G tapered section. The M2 web site doesn't give dimensions, but says a 2800 will fit inside 25G. Installation might be "interesting" however. One proble

You are correct--that data was for a 40 foot tower with the guys at 35 feet. I misread the graph from the Rohn website, displayed in Acrobat and rotated 90 degrees. 73, Bob, N7XY

25. [Towertalk] lmr 400 question (score: 1)
Author: nielsen@oz.net (Bob Nielsen)
Date: Fri, 18 Oct 2002 12:15:39 -0700
I'd be a bit hesitant about flexing LMR-400 very much, as it has a center conductor of copper-clad aluminum. I recently replaced a number of electrical outlets in my house (built in 1974) which were

I suspect that would only work until the wind started blowing. :-( Have you looked into one of the shorter telescoping towers, such as the Force 12 LPT series (available with 6', 8' or 12' sections)

27. [Towertalk] LMR400 vs. RG-213 (score: 1)
Author: nielsen@oz.net (Bob Nielsen)
Date: Mon, 21 Oct 2002 19:32:03 -0700
RG-213 has a non-contaminating jacket, not a direct burial jacket. As I recall it is practically identical to one of the RG-8 versions and I would expect that the loss figures are identical. In this

Author: nielsen@oz.net (Bob Nielsen)
Date: Mon, 21 Oct 2002 22:06:41 -0700
It IS confusing. MIL-SPEC RG-8/U had a polyethylene dielectric, the same as MIL-SPEC RG-213. I recall that the original had a contaminating PVC jacket, but I think there was a later version which had

29. [Towertalk] guying tolerance (score: 1)
Author: nielsen@oz.net (Bob Nielsen)
Date: Thu, 24 Oct 2002 09:56:19 -0700
The key consideration is that the vector sum of the horizontal forces on the tower from the guys is zero, so one will end up with unequal tension in the guys. The use of a tension gauge such as the o

Author: nielsen@oz.net (Bob Nielsen)
Date: Sat, 14 Sep 2002 10:34:26 -0700
I believe the length of the fiberglass tubes is constant and the copper ribbon elements inside the tubes move in and out, so this would not be a factor. I haven't actually seen it from closer than 10

32. [Towertalk] vertical mast to vertical mounting hardware? (score: 1)
Author: nielsen@oz.net (Bob Nielsen)

I'll second that recommendation. I recently installed a Hy-Gain AV-640 and the mounting clamps had inadvertently been left out of the box (I called and they said they would send some, but after sever

The ARRL insurance covers both individuals and affiliated clubs. The application form has a place for "other location where equipment is kept," so that should cover this type of situation. You can ca

It seems like I'm not the only one with memory problems around here! As I recall, Hy-gain made beams with ribbed traps and beams with loops at the ends of the elements, but I don't remember any with

Ron, I think what is happening is that the list software filters out non-text content and adds these lines to explain what it happening. Personally, I wish all lists would do that (I use mutt, which
