Unfortunately, the K-Com and Z-Block filters will also block or severely attenuate the DSL signal, which occupies roughly the same band as AM broadcast stations. Many's the installation where I had t

The "standard" Rohn guy bracket at the midpoint of my R45 does nestle down against the z-braces so it cannot slip, but the device that the guy wire attaches to resembles a single giant chain link, an

I went through this with a pencil last year when I put up my 80' 45G. Don't have the exact numbers handy, but after you add in the extra cost for the Philly, and then subtract a BUNCH of relatively e

Yep, Bill is right. As long as you use back-to-back grips with heavy duty thimbles (so they won't collapse under tension and put a sharp bend in the grip), I see no reason why longer guys can't be ma

At the risk of offending some, I haven't seen anybody post the obvious solution of retiring this thing and putting up one of the bigger Yaesu or other similar units. Over the past few years I've read

Hmmm.. You may have to contact an Asian contractor for this stuff. Back in my USN days, I believe it was referred to as a "binjo ditch". Never considered it might serve as a coax conduit too. :-) 73,

Most CAT5 and telephone wire will be #26 solid conductor, so use caution where voltage drops are a concern on longer runs. Ma Bell doesn't hesitate to use #26 for several mile runs; however, the curr

Wait, we could be on to something here. Pigeons are meat and water, so they must have some inherent inductance, and their little feet have some capacitance when attached to the elements. Now if you c

You can find Scotch 33 or 88T at any electrical supply house or distributor. You won't usually find it at the hardware store. 88T is what we use at Ma Bell for outside work, not a bad testament to it

Now that you mention Rohn, where were they? Maybe AN scared them off, or they don't give a big rat's behind about ham radio any more, or both. If I hadn't put up my R45 last summer, I'd be ordering a
