Hi guys & gals, at a recent weekend gathering of a few fellow hams, the
following discussion evolved:
How about using 3 full sized 40 meter slopers as a guying system on a 51'
Tri-EX Crank-up. The idea
was to have a remotely controlled antenna switch mounted on the tower.
In looking an the 95 ARRL Handbook, and finding Antenna Wire Strength in
Table 30.33, some interesting
discussions followed. Assuming that using insulators, supports, etc, at
least as strong as the wire,
can it be done, has anyone done anything like this ??
Thanks for the replies, in advance !!!!!
