I have been following the exchanges about the shunt-fed, relatively short,
towers on 160 and 80. At the expense of looking ignorant- I would like a
question answered (about these particular set-ups).
what are you using for guy support?
My tower is a 48 ft fold-over, with an ATB34 tribander at about 51 ft..
Total to top of mast is about 55 ft. At present- the guys are plain old
3/16 EHS, four at two levels, strictly as Rohn says for the fold-over.
I have PLENTY of room for radials.
Recommendations?
Thanks-
Bill-W4BSG
