Author: jlangdon@outer.net (John Langdon)

You should order the Champion Radio Tribander Test Report for details, but in your situation you want the most electrical performance for the lowest weight and wind load, and IMHO you should get a C3

Hoffman enclosures are available at local electrical distrib, usually it takes a week or so to get the exact size you want. The fiberglass ones are great for outdoor relays for adding reactance or le

Date: Wed, 19 Aug 1998 16:33:14 -0500
IMHO your proposed spacing is too close, I would think you need 10' minimum, but check with N6BT and if he says less spacing is okay, go for it. If the interaction with the other antennas is not a pr

Author: jlangdon@outer.net (John Langdon)

Phillystran stretches LESS than EHS, at least that's the way I understand things. My tower has 18 guys composed mostly of Phillystran with EHS at each end near the tower and ground posts, and I see n

Author: jlangdon@outer.net (John Langdon)
Date: Mon, 31 Aug 1998 16:06:22 -0500
I do not have any problems with 10M on the C3, but I do have a shift on 15M on C4XL's, which I believe is due to the proximity of the 15M element to the 55G when the C4XL is mounted to mechanically b

I use "Buryflex" available from Davis RF and Wireman for the loops on a rotating tower - so far so good - very low loss for a short run like a loop. 73 John N5CQ Greetings: Is there a recommended (i.

I have the same phenomenon with stacked C4XL and C3. As a storm approaches from the distance, I hear clicks in the receiver, increasing in amplitude and decreasing in "inter-spike interval" as the st

I had an RBX50G that was manufactured in 1967. It was very stout. I think it is still in service in South Texas. As I recall the 60 model had a lower wind rating than the 50, and there was an "RB" mo

I think one of the psychological factors leading people to overestimate the Mosley Pro series is the relatively good performance of the old TA33's and CL-33's, in that many people simply assume the P
