I'm getting ready to side mount a 14 el 2m beam on my tower for
use with the local packet cluster. I was wondering what is a good
distance to mount the antenna away from the tower ? Our local
tower climber suggested changing the mount on the beam to horizontal,
that way a piece of mast pipe with u-bolts can be used to attach it
to the tower and keep any mast/tower sections out of the way of the
beam's elements.
Thanks...
