N4ZR asked about 7RM's beach antenna feeders: CATV hardline. Antennas were small 3 or 4-element yagis, on a section or two of 25G. On 28 Mc there, I would transmit on the Bluff but listen from the be

A 2.4m roof tower will be too short for your final antenna, unless you are thinking of 50 or 70 Mc. Even at more than twice that height, I find too much interaction with the roof at 14 Mc with a trib
