Does anyone have any info on TriEx Skyneedles? I may have access to one but don't know the model number. Retracted it's about 24ft and I think there are 3 sections. So I presume its about 52ft extend
Looks like I may be getting a Skyneedle TMHD370. Its no taller than my current HG70HD, but I certainly can put more antenna on the Skyneedle. I really over did the concrete when doing the Hygain towe
Yep. Sometimes we get lucky! A few years ago I found a 5-acre plot with a nice house, just outside the city limits and outside their urban growth plan. But only a mile from town and with a nice view
The Champion mast clamp is massive and probably a great solution to the OEM clamp. But take care of a couple things. 1. Be carefull when tightening the nuts on the U-bolts. A friend of mine was helpi
The guy doing the tightening didn't use anything other than a normal ratchet when tightening. It is very possible it could have been a defective U-bolt. The others tightened down with no problem. Whe

I have a friend who I helped install one of these antennas along with 32 radials, most of which are ~32 feet...some 60ft. Your 4NEC does not reflect real life what is seen at the radio end using a 4:
Wouldn't the relay in a meter like the LP-00 or Powermaster work for this by cutting the keying line to the amp when the SWR is too high? Greg AB7R -- _______________________________________________

I obviously did not catch all of this thread but I find this email funny. I have 3 horses and would also be interested in knowing how to make them radiate. Do yo feed the tail as a long wire with a j
Gulf Alpha antennas also make a very nice one that is VERY hefty and a great design. I think I also paid $100 for it. I particularly like its built-in stop block so that when you are raising the ante
Talking about matching units.... I found this tuner from a company called Consolidated Electronics out of NJ. Its pretty old but in mint condition on the inside. It's a big wx proof box containing a

Anyone have any experience with L-Com 400 coax? http://www.l-com.com/item.aspx?id=21108 I can get a 1Kft roll locally for $300. I know that's only $70 less than ordering online but I don't have to me
