1. [TowerTalk] Using plywood forms...?? (score: 1)
Author: ve4xt@mb.sympatico.ca (Kelly Taylor)
Date: Mon Jun 30 21:51:27 2003
I think the only relevant information here is what is contained, in various phraseology, in almost every tower instructions I have ever read: "pour into undisturbed soil." Use a form at the top if yo

2. [TowerTalk] grounding (score: 1)
Author: ve4xt@mb.sympatico.ca (Kelly Taylor)

Hi all, On another reflector, a gent recommends disconnecting shack ground during lightning storms. This seems contrary to anything I've seen on here and, counterintuitively, rather naive. Thoughts?

Hmmm, The stuff I saw on the rainforrent Web site seems entirely unsuited to large vertical antennas. They call it lightweight aluminum, which would suggest its designed to cross horizontal spans and

5. [TowerTalk] Favourite tower tip (score: 1)
Author: ve4xt@mb.sympatico.ca (Kelly Taylor)
Date: Mon Feb 10 23:29:51 2003
My favourite tower tip comes from a near-disaster while working atop a tower in a semi-professional basis: If the tower's owner is not experienced, explain EVERYTHING. Including the right and wrong w

It's unfortunate that in the rush to debate the bowline, nobody answered the real question: does anybody know of a Web site with knot-tying instructions? That would be helpful to a lot of people. 73,

This is still the antenna and towers reflector, right? :=) Just thought I'd pass on an experience with the MA5B, Cushcraft's reduced-package yagi. I fell perhaps a little hard for the CC salesman's p

Not exactly. Having just read the piece on the F12 Web site about quads and yagis, Tom points in a rather circumspect manner to some unnamed research. He does correctly point out that the flaw in com

Shucks, I went all through their Web site. I was certain somewhere they'd claim it cleans toilets too. Perhaps QST needs to get out their X-ray machine again. But then Maxcom would probably claim tha

Date: Sun, 6 Oct 2002 10:55:55 -0500
I think what's missing here is perspective. It's hard to tell how much distance separates the tower and the plane. That the tower, which would be rather small, compared to the plane, appears as big o

Jon, It seems as though this question could be bandied about here ad infinitum. There are a LOT of knowledgeable people on this reflector, and I don't wish to speak ill about any of them, but with so

Hi, First step? To what end? Motorized booms and elements to achieve what? Higher after-sale profits? This all seems like a move to make antennas more complicated than they need to be in a bid to inc

If I remember correctly, the detector in QST was only for the detection of oncoming lightning activity. It seems that the original post was for something that would detect if the electrical infrastru

Hi Jeff, Good questions, all. As long as the tower is in good shape, it shouldn't matter how old it is. Check for rust. Check all cross-brace to leg connections for sturdiness. And most important --
