Topband: TITANEX V160HD vertical

[Ragnar Otterstad]

I have one of these antennas in a windy hilltop location. It is guyed (as I
don't have the courage to leave it up unguyed, as the spec suggests, in
winds gusting up to 90 mph).


I have had one up for 2 years now. In heavy winds it is bending over some 45
degs, but once the stormy weathe is over,
 it comes back to a vertical position.

Admittedly, I  am inland so perhaps I dont get the gusts you have. BUT  so
far, all looks good, with no guying.
A photo of my installation can be found under " antennas ".
