Has anyone been able to run champion radio's mastcalc program under windows 7? Thanks Rich - N5ZC _______________________________________________ _______________________________________________ Tower
I have 80' of Rohn 45g installed per 90 mhp specs ( I live in a county with a wind speed rating of 85mph). The Rohn catalog states I can have 14.5 square feet of antenna at the top, which I do in the
I'm working on a plan to install a couple Tic ring rotors on my 45g. For the most part I've been using a crane for tower work. However, its more than likely I'll have to climb the tower occasionally.
I'd like to determine if I can mount a F12 warc7 yagi on a swinging gate side mount. If anyone has the dimensions between the elements where the boom attaches to the mast I would appreciate it. 73, R

I sure like my C31XR at 79' with a Delta 240 mounted 10' above it. I plan on changing out the 240 with a Delta 230/240 and lower it to about 7' above the C31xr then add a WARC 2/2 at the 10' level. T

When ever a storm is approaching my station you can hear a bowl (kings size bowl) of rice krispies up on top of the tower. I have a F12 C31 and a F12 D240 and the elements are insulated from the boom
Hi Jake, Actually the power poles will be very easy to setup for polarity. Much easier to setup compared to cinch's or utility trailer connectors. I can have them crimped up by the time I had my sold
F12 just went to a new coil design on the delta series. I just took delivery of a 240/230 which has 2 elements on 40 and 2 elements on 40 with the new coils. The new design is stouter than the origin
Dan, I currently have a F12 C3 which has plenty of room between the elements at the mounting point. I did have to slide the boom a bit so my swinging gate would rotate it around the tower. I do plan

Consider installing the mast while the tower is still laying on the ground. You can also install the mast to boom plates on the mast. It will be easier to install at the correct distance above the to
Jerry, I had a C3 up for 10 years and while the ubolts were a bit rusty, they came apart just fine with a little WD-40. I do live in a dry climate which has something to do with it I'm sure. cycle-24
Don, K4ZA is who I would contact. Rich - N5ZC Recommendations?? Thanks, Ken - N4TCP _______________________________________________ _______________________________________________ TowerTalk mailing l
Ron, From a base perspective I would go with a pier pin for two reasons; - If you ever want to go to a different size tower like 45g or 55g you will be able to easily. This does make it challenging t
I had a Delta 240 which I changed out to a Delta 240/230. Its mounted 5' above a F12 C31XR tribander. The combo works just great. Highly recommended. Pictures on qrz.com Rich - N5ZC On 4/10/2014 5:59
