The ice storm of late November has given me the opportunity to replace all my antennas (translated, mother nature smashed all of them). I had been using a Cushcraft 402 and a Tennadyne T-10 at 100 an

Please, all, post your advice to Towertalk, not just to Peter. I have virtually all the same questions as he. I've been wondering about the "D" (or higher) versions of Force 12 beams. These are heavi

Not emotional, but seems to me that by posting on Towertalk you capture the most folks with the most different antennas, including SteppIRs. 73, Pete N4ZR Happy Holidays

The December 4 ice storm here in NC snapped the boom of the upgraded-wind survival version of my Force12 C36XR, just behind the 6th element. Actually, it was the boom truss that did it in; the cable

Pete, For 10-20 meters, including the WARC bands, have you considered the Force 12 Model 5BA? That's what I'm using. It's the D model, rated for 100 MPH. I have it mounted on a US Tower 72' retracta

Pete, My 402CD survived estimated 80-90 MPH winds from a small tornado. I reinforced (double walled) the first section of each half element. I also put 6 inch wooden dowels in each end and a 12 inch

This combination (a Force 12 230/240 and a 5BA) appeals to me, too. What can anyone tell us about how properly to stack them? In particular, how far apart should they be on a single mast above a 70-f

I have this configuration. So does W7FU and the antennas at my place can be seen on qrz.com. Height of 5BA is 100 ft. The 230/240 is at 115 ft. The recommended spacing distance from Force12. Henrik O

Yow! A 230/240 at the top of fifteen feet of unreinforced mast?! Is that safe? What are you using for a mast? -Chuck, W1HIS

Natan told me 10 foot spacing would be fine. I never asked which would be the topmost antenna but like you, I assume it would be the 230/240. You would definitely need a chromalloy mast though! -- 73

I'm not familiar in detail with the W7NI method (I read the article once ages ago) but I think there's one important caveat. Force 12 states the wind area of its antennas in their worst-case alignmen

Hi Gang I have a question about band separation assuming two towers. What is the general preference about antennas on the same mast? If one has two towers, is it 20 and 15 on one tower/mast and 40 an

I have an opportunity to do some HF operating this summer from a cabin near Taos NM. I plan to use a Ten Tec Argonaut. The simple solution for an antenna would be a MFJ or SGC 230 antenna tuner with

Hi David I do a lot of camping in the summer here and I have found that a good old G5RV works excellent. I use an MFJ tuner and there is always somewhere to throw a rope over a tree and hoist it up.

yea, G5RV is the good one. I dont know how it works on 30 - i have used it for contesting only - but the rest of the bands are good. the only weirdo is the 15m band - it has relatively high impedance
