In this height range (~70 feet), given take off angles and vertical propagation angle info from N6BV, I calculated that every 10 feet was 1 db, on 14 MHz meters or higher. That's why for my setup, I

I vote for the STeppir 3 element. Much less mehcanical complexity, perfect gain and f/b on any freq you want. Never owned one, but would buy one in a heartbeat if my KT-36XA fell down. Never owned a

I had questions about breakage on the Tennadyne logs. First time around, ice buildup caused one of the longest elements to literally tear a big hunk out of the boom. We took the back part of the ante

Guy I don't think you can just use the new dimensions. There are other changes (mechanical) which can affect trap resonant frequencies. A call to Mike at M2 will give you all the info you need. I hav

First, I wouldn't worry about a swinging gate hitting a tower leg. It'll just stall the rotator, which is no worse than having a stuck break wedge. 73, Tony K1KP

Well, lets see: 2.16 dB loss => 60.8% power delivered to load 1.40 dB loss => 72.4% power delivered to load assuming 1500 watts in, the difference is 174 watts. Look at it this way, if you use the lo
