Is it at the back of the lot ? Put a satellite dish or two on it...say it's to get a better signal. _______________________________________________ _______________________________________________ Tow
Should be easy to extend the vertical radiator up... If you look at the instruction manual for the antenna you should be able to interpolate the approximate length needed. The fun part may be the lit
sounds like it might be time for a dremel tool with a good cut off wheel to cut the bolts... _______________________________________________ _______________________________________________ TowerTalk
I've seen this topic crop up on the repeater-builder group and it is typically due to the center conductor of the long run of coax contracting at night and then lengthening during the heat of the day
The 2x2x4 chunk of concrete is called ballast. Similar to the keel of a sailboat...helps to keep it upright. _______________________________________________ __________________________________________
If you can do a quad driven element and a yagi style reflector and directors you should be good. Even a quad reflector and a dipole driven element works fine. They scale up and down in frequency very
How about just adding a second underground pipe or conduit ? Keep what you got and add the second for expansion. 73, Jon KD5SFA _______________________________________________ _______________________

I recall hearing people talk about these but I never got them as I typically read the news... 73 Sent from my iPad _______________________________________________ ____________________________________
I was in Home Depot earlier today and they had some stainless steel cable ties...they were about 50 cents apiece. I would think those would hold up well. _____________________________________________
I would have wrapped it in good electrical tape followed by the coax seal, then another layer of tape. Possibly then a layer of the self sealing silicone tape followed by another layer of electrical
Earthquakes are not caused by fracking! Recently had several studies done here in DFW area because of this very topic. We had over 30 tremors with 40 days... Fracking is a 2 - 5 day event at a well t
wastewater injection wells have existed prior to widespread fracking operations. On that note, there is a lot more being injected back into the earth due to the higher number of wells in use today. T
I live in the DFW area..had about one a day for about 2 months about 1.5 years ago. you should not have an issue... Think of all the big towers in California...how many of them have fallen due to qua
I know in the Azle area they reduced the amount that was being injected and the quakes stopped. _______________________________________________ _______________________________________________ TowerTa
The porcupine device was designed to reduce general static build up...especially on dry windy days. If I recall correctly it was primarily for repeater systems but I could be wrong. I know it has bee
Build a fan dipole set up as an inverted V. Space the elements equally apart (60 degrees). You should get vertical polarization and omnidirectional-ish signal and less interaction between elements. _
There are a couple of 6m yahoo groups...not many antenna specific threads in awhile. _______________________________________________ _______________________________________________ TowerTalk mailing
