1. [TowerTalk] The BIG one! (score: 1)

I just had a phone conversation with Stan Stockton, K5GO, and he's building a big tower that'll have a 5 element 40M beam on a 100' boom on top of it. Wowser! He estimates the weight at 2000 pounds.

That will be about 1/4 the antenna area of the 5-el 80m beam at 7J4AAL. http://www.uba.be/actual/pics/7j4aal.jpg Don N8DE _______________________________________________ _____________________________

More power to him, but my understanding from gurus such as N6BV and W3LPL is that he would be better off with a stack of 3 element Yagi's. Possibly even a stack of 2 element Yagi's would be better th

I fully agree, he will not improve above his stack of 2x3 elements with the upper at 150 feet+: http://us.f13.yahoofs.com/bc/43de01f4ma0718d53/bc/3+over+3+on+40+mtrs+at+K5G O.jpg?BCk.cEFBL.J7d8wc If

While doing the previous simulation already with HFTA, I did another one for my own location on a small hilltop, which benefits from slooping foreground, with the same antennas. Here the situation is

Agreed, but couldn't he have put up a five element quad on a much smaller boom at substantially lower weight and still obtained about the same gain? I'm not sure here, but if you press me, I'll model

Yes, it was QST July 1963. I did visit Dale during the summer 1973, that antenna was still up on the tower however broken. The boom had snapped and the part was hanging down in the boom guywire. Sure

I'm pretty sure that once he gets the first one working he plans to build a second one and stack the two. This was what Stan told me a couple years ago. Safe to assume Stan's purpose is DX contests.
