Dave...The antenna that I have is a 6 element on a 57' foot boom...Way to
big. If I could get a manual for the 5 element KLM antenna, that would
possibly work as well.
42 foot boom is a little longer than what I wanted....But I do have the 6
element and 57 feet of boom that I can use....
Thanks for the input and 73!
