[CQ-Contest] Antenna slippage on mast

Yes. 

Take them all down and ship them to me. 

Well, wait a minute. Only 4 elements on 40? 

Never mind..... ;-)

Subject: [CQ-Contest] Antenna slippage on mast 


I have a large 20M monobander with a 60' boom. It seems that whenever the winds exceed a certain speed I will subsequently need to climb up to 160' to repoint the antenna. My 40M 4 el beam doesn't seem to do this. It is definately not rotator slippage because the 15M monobander is lined up just fine. 

Any tips/tricks? 

Thanks in advance, 
Guy, N7ZG
