>>I have a favour to ask. I need to get some quantitative
information on the
>>bird strike hazard for rotary aluminium antennas. The ZS8
management
>>committee is refusing to allow ZS8D to erect his beam, because
they fear
>>that the poor birds will be decapitated. They previously had
trouble with

itself on a

>>Could you please let me know if you have a good source of info,
or put this
