Hello I am new to the forum and thank you for your acceptance into the group. There have been many discussions on wind loading to mast supported antennas but I was wondering if anyone has calculated

Robert The principal forces on your stub mast are bending and torque. If you place an aerial on a stub mast which is twice the length of your current one, the bending moment at the rotator will be tw

Hello John, Thanks for your reply. I can confirm when the tower is luffed over it is at minimum height plus approx 6 foot and no more. This is what has caused us to call a halt to the work and conduc

You might also consider rotating one of the antennas 90 degrees for a coupling test "in place". If the interaction goes away, you might want to make the 90 degree offset permanent. Either keep track

Robert, As you have identified, this is a risky situation that requires careful thought and planning. Some references to study: Physical Design of Yagi Antennas by Dave Leeson W6QHS (now W6NL). A wea

Hi It would make sense to confirm the A3 as the cause of interaction first, no? Thinking you could simply lower the A3s and then determine what effect it has on your VHF yagi. Also, how do you know t
