21. [TowerTalk] AB 105 ? (score: 1)

In addition, there is what's known as "heavy" AB105 which is still 24" on a side but has much heavier vertical rails and uses 3/8" bolts instead of 5/16". The last Trylon equivalent was 2400H . It's

If you get lightning, you can also save yourself a lot of grief by installing MOV's on all leads at the motor. I've lost several pots due to induced voltage, but none after rebuilding using new pots

The motors already have an RF filter board in line with the leads, which I assume would take care of noise from the motor, but maybe the design is deficient. There has been some speculation that it's

Have you tried bonding the ring to the motor as a test? How about the boom to the ring as well? Another thing perhaps worth trying is to isolate both the control wiring and/or control box from the ro

Yes, I guess a more accurate test would be to run them all in vertical polarization on a fiberglass mast or end mounted for gain comparisons. Then mount them on a PVRC mount and flip them vertically

His recommendations do not apply since we are not talking about ground-based antennas! Dave and Ty mentioned using vertical polarization for triband tests. This is usually NOT recommended for HF ante

Oh, wow, an engineering student! So your conclusion is that you shouldnt use fiberglass because it stretches? Nonsense. OK, so maybe the fiberglass does stretch more than steel...it also sags a LOT l

I'm fairly partial to one made by Budwig. I know RF Connection carries them in stock. I think they are about 7 bucks or so. It's a one piece molded insulator out of a green fiberglass-looking materia

Now I'm confused....why should you need feedline to make the SWR good? I also wonder if the other antennas might be affecting your 15 meter SWR...particularly that WARC antenna 6 feet away. Perhaps 1

The only correct answer is "Only your PE knows for sure". I think you should be able to work with that square pipe, but it would help if you knew what the material was exactly. What you'll need in th

The disadvantage to vertical polarization is that you lose the additional gain provided by ground reflections, which is many db's for all but ground wave signals on 10 meters at any reasonable antenn

Your wish is their command. Cushcraft will have a new version of the 402CD dubbed the XM240 at Dayton in a couple of weeks. I'm hoping to have it up on my tower at 200' a few weeks after the show! I'

One way to alleviate any potential torque issue is to mount the rotator at the base and run a mast all the way up the tower! Even mounting it part of the way down should help a lot. 73, Ty K3MM -- FA
