Author: grimm@lynchburg.net (Kenneth D. Grimm, K4XL)
Date: Mon, 08 Mar 1999 15:08:36 -0500
I've had a freestanding 72' Heights tower up since 1969 loaded with various stacks including 4 els on 10, 15 and 20. The tower survived microbursts that ripped pieces of elements off the antennas. Cu

This is the same method I use. While I have had lightning damage to trees less than 25 feet from the tower (which is much higher) I've had no damage in the shack. Your milage may vary, but this seems

Hello Jim, Yes, you have one of the oldies, but goodies. Originally manufactured by Dick McKercher, W0MLY. He sold out to Larry Reed and then I sorta lost track of who was doing what. However, the la

Since I have had several requests for the scanned manual for the Model 50 Antenna Mart switch, I have decided to place it in the BoatAnchor Manual Archive. Anyone can download it from the ftp site be

This is very discouraging. When I put up my EF-420/240 I only had to re-drill one of the six elements. I thought it was just a fluke. 73, Ken K4XL -- Ken K4XL grimm@lynchburg.net BoatAnchor Manual Ar

Hello Ed, Several years ago, on the basis of your article, I threw away all my BN-86s which were constantly giving trouble and retired the W2DU baluns that had generally worked OK, but were getting a

9. [TowerTalk] Opinions? Gem Quad element wire (score: 1)
Author: grimm@lynchburg.net (Kenneth D. Grimm)
Date: Sat, 07 Nov 1998 16:24:22 -0500
Soft copper wire will be fine for 20 mx and smaller quad loops. The weight that they are carrying is negligible. Over the years I've used all sorts of wire for the elements on tri-band quads and the

Yes, that would be refreshing...on both sides of the Leets v. Munimula controversy! Drake Dimitry's assertions about Munimula masts lack the "precision" that is demanded by the Leets worshipers who i

What a great question! I hope someone who is into modeling will take the time to come up with an answer. Obviously, the correct thing to do is to change all elements, but what is the magnitude of the

Hello Mike and Steve, The Cerablend sounds very interesting, but Perhaps the oldest "hint or kink" of all is to simply fill the aluminum tubing with sand as you apply your bending pressure. I have us
