Hi Rick es HNY !
TU for that advice. I need to look up the weight of the heavier duty
fence pipe. As these are going to be elevated verticals which I "pivot"
into place by myself I need to look at what the total weight will be. I
have about 8' of 6x6 set in the ground then use a wooden frame that
cradles around the 6x6 and pivots the verticals into place. Kinda hard
to explain but it will put the feedpoint at around 10' off the ground,
then of course the length of the vertical. So I should be able to walk
it up into place. Will check it out TU.
Think about a temporary falling derrick erection mechanism. with the
antenna laying flat, you stick a piece of pipe on a spud that is
vertical. If you start the antenna up by walking it a bit, prop it on a
ladder, then go over and pull down the derrick pole.
