I would think the easiest way to settle the 'tri-bander vs whatever' debate would be to have both installed at the same time..same lengths of new, like feedline, same height above the ground, etc. Th

Yeah, I too think that if some one could sell 3 or 4 million antenna rotors the price would come down. But I have some Ham Ms I have kept running for 35 years. Just grease & paint every now & then...

For the winter, I put up an Inverted L with TWO 130 foot radials 7 or 8 feet off the ground, high enough to avoid 'deer hits'. Is it worth the effort to raise them to 16' as many recommend? Ed, W3EKT
