Eric,

To get the new turning radius do the following:

Measure from end of boom to the new element
Measure 1/2 the new element

Plug these 2 numbers into the Right Triangle Calculator here (Side a & b):

http://www.csgnetwork.com/righttricalc.html

The result (Side c) will be your new turning radius.

I have a C-3SS that I've had for a long time. It's a great antenna.

A couple of yers ago, I've an EF-140 rotatable dipole that I'd like to
mount on the C-3SS.  I never got around to it then, but now might be the
time.

I have VERY brief directions from Tom Schiller and a copy of the EF-140
instruction manual.

Questions: Is this feasible or worthwhile? Has anyone actually done it, and
with what results?

A mechanical question. What would be the resulting turning radius? The
C-3SS has a 13 foot turning radius.

Thanks!
