Hi Henry;

Sounds like U have a DB-1015 by the original Hy-Gain company. Designed to
stack above the 204BA 20M yagi. One of our former local CDXA members
(K2SD) had one in Charlotte, NC, and it & 204BA 10' below survived
Hurricane Hugo w/ 108 MPH winds in 1989.
 
Check www.w7fg.com for a good reprint manual.

GL-Happy Thanksgiving.

73,
