Hi Guys....
I would like some heartfelt advice.  I am a senior citizen ham with some
physical limitations.  I want to put up a better antenna,  I have a a good
system for 10m thru 40m( a beam on a 85 ft tower).  I would like to put up a
better system for 75 and 160 and am wondering about the comparative
considerations of the Unihat CTSVR antenna and the GAP Voyager antenna.  I
would appreciate input on those two antennas and any other easily errected
antennas.  At this point in my life I am not physically able to handle an
elaborate antenna installation.  I have plenty of available real estate for
antennass but limitted ability.  Thanks so much for any help.  Either e-mail
direct or go via the reflectors.

If I were you, I would take a serious look at the TITANEX 160HD.
With the crankup winch even I could raise it, and if need ever occured , it
would be easy to crank down too.

Needs radials. but as you have space enough , that should not be a problem.
With the original Titanex ATU
could can switch bands from the shack via a 3 wire cable and a small wafer
switch.
