Ok, yet again I haven't checked the archives, so please flame me for what is
probably a fequently asked question.
I have my spankin' new tower and TH3 beam up at long last and I was thinking
that it would be a good idea to park the thing in a position most neutral to
the prevailing winds. I've been parking it with the elements in line with
the general wind direction here, but I'm wondering if it's better to turn it
face-on (elements broadside to the winds).
It may not make any difference, but after all the hardship of rebuilding
this 20 year old antenna, putting the tower up, and raising the whole
assembly, I want to minimize the weather wear and tear as much as possible.
Thanks for any advice, and 73,
-- Dave, WA0TTN
