Gary I have a bag of splices, ends and a never used coring tool for bare Al 3/4" What are you looking for? I'd rather part with the whole mess since I am not using that here. Bill K2EK **Check out AO
I found the garden variety Radio Shack dpdt 10A relay fine for my switching needs (well, short of 70cm eme). I used them as: the TR in a 4-1000 amp; a 20M upper/lower/bip/bop box and to select either

You could try painting them using a hi-visibilty spray. A can would go a long way. If that is not enough, you could zig zag wrap a few feet of the plastic tape surveyors use between a pair of guys. I
I spoke to I.C.E. about 7 weeks ago to report a 303 unit that failed (which ICE agreed to replace N/C) and to order a pair of receive suppressors with F connectors. So far I have not seen anything. I
I am in the early planning stages for my next tower. This time around I'm going to take K4XS's advice (amongst others) and plant the first section in concrete. Assuming a base extending a foot or 2 a
I think I'd opt to take that 1/2 million and buy a nice little place in Tahiti. Maybe even throw in a SteppIR and crank up for times when sun, beach and Pina Coladas got boring! There are two east-co
I did just this quite some time ago... 8 or 9 delta loop elements hanging from a 120 foot rope on a pretty decent hillside. The rope may have been up 60 feet, but the foreground sloped down several h
I have a break in all coax and control cables about 8 feet from my service entrance. All go through ICE or Polypashser boxes which are mounted on a pair of 8 foot ground rods. These rods connect via

I had the 3 element 20M Telrex (26 foot boom) at 95 feet. It was bought new not long before Telrex went out of business. During contests, I would add a 2nd at 60 feet which I made from parts scavenge
Rick My inv-L is 60' vertical plus 75' +/- sloping down and away from the tower (70' topped with an X7). There is 6' separation between the tower and vertical wire. I also use the tower as a folded m
I had a 303U smoke in the middle of a zone 19 UA0 qso on 160 just about 1 year ago. I really needed that one and still do. I called ICE (many times before I got a warm body) and was assured a replace
