Hi,

I am looking for experiences with the toploaded vertical with a 18m Spiderbeam pole.

As described on the Spiderbeam website:
<<https://www.spiderbeam.com/product_info.php?info=p338_160m%20Wire%20Vertical%20kit%20for%2018m%20fiberglass%20pole.html&XTCsid=4a1073266aff30fbb590fe50e3bd792a>>

I have erected a 18m pole for use as 80m vertical. Looking if I can change that to 160m as well.

I see a lot of swing of the top of the pole. Just wondering if the CQ-534 is strong enough to keep the antenna straight during heavy wind.
