Greetings, TowerTalkians -- I've got a local ham who can only install an HF vertical in a kind of restricted spot. He can only put a couple of radials out but they'll have to be bent, shortened, etc.

Hi Steve - I just purchased a DX-77 just yesterday. It's still in the box. I was looking for a simple antenna for the second radio, to permit SO2R and M/S operation. I asked the same question recentl

I like the Butternut verticles. yes, they work better with a ground plane, but I have used them with an 8 foot ground rod. Worked well. I've also used the copper pipe plumbing in the house as a groun

Steve, Here's a copy of a message I sent to someone else on the GAP Titan. Hope this helps. 73, Dick, WC1M I've been using a GAP Titan for the past three years while planning my new "hidden" antenna

In due respect to the others who have commented on this topic, I would suggest your local ham pick a single band, maybe 20 meters, and put up a monoband Gladiator vertical. I have a 20 meter Glad up

Very interesting about the Gladiator verticals - I hadn't heard of them before. FYI, a quick search of the net turns up the following home page for the Gladiator antennas: http://www.primenet.com/~bm

The GAP really needs radials to play properly. I have a DX-77 and it's useless in rainy weather! I think the exposed trap design is the problem. 73, Roger -- FAQ on WWW: http://www.contesting.com/tow

I don't think radials will help the Gap because it's a vertical dipole. 73, Dick, WC1M --Original Message-- From: Roger D. Johnson <n1rj@ime.net> To: UpTheTower@aol.com <UpTheTower@aol.com> Cc: tower

GAP Titan gets my vote (I have one). Been using GAPs since 1990 and satisfied. Actually a conventional 1/4-wave trapped vertical such as the 14AVQ with an eight foot ground rod works very well. Back
