Frank, W3LPL, told me if i had one tower to put up make it 100'. Every time I came up with a scenario or anecdote from someone, his answer was the same,"100 feet". ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

You may not feel the same in five years. 100' is a good for 20m most of the time but not for 10m during a sunspot maximum, where 30' to 40' may be significantly better. John KK9A Jim Lux and others h

I know that your antennas need to be at least 1/4 wave from the ground but do you lose anything or not gain anything by going to to high? If so please explain... Thanks Joe __________________________

I was looking at rohn 45 for the simple fact that the difference in price between 45 and 25 is really not that great after you factor in the concreate costs etc. And it it much nicer to climb. I was

Tim, TT: The extra 20' should improve longhaul performance on 20. If it were me, I'd go with a 3 el SteppIR yagi, and get both improved performance and lower windload. The only question would be, how

20m will likely benefit slightly from the extra height, however 10m will likely worsen, especially when conditions improve in a few years. TT'ians, I am planning to replace a cushcraft A3WS that has

I think a quad will work better for you, if you intend to keep the antenna below the treetops.... 73, Ed NI6S _______________________________________________ _________________________________________

My opinion is that, at treetop level, you will be ok with a Steppir, as the take off angles will be high enough to miss the trees....But if you are well below (50' tower below 70' trees), you will si
