I’m putting up my first tower, a LM-354HDSP with a Steppir DB11 and a JK 40
meter horizontal dipole, both in the same mast. I have a 20 ft 2 in OD mast
from Tashjian and am wondering whether I should cut off the unused length or
leave it?
Karl at Tashjian suggested I install the rotator plate 3 ft below the top of
the tower and the DB11 2 ft above the top, with the JK40 8 ft above that (10 ft
from the top of the tower). That will leave 7 ft of the mast unused.
Do you folks recommend I leave the extra 7ft of the mast in place or cut it off?
Appreciate the input and any other comments or suggestions on my plan.
73,
David K6ZD
