On of the locals (KD3RC) had one up. As I recall, it sagged 2-3 ft at the ends. If I were going to install one, I would do the element strengthning modifications that W6NL developed for the CC 40-2CD

I Agree with Phil! I have a 1965 vintage TH6 that's still working great. I have refurbished the traps several times and the hardware is now all stainless. Other than that, it's the original antenna.
