OK,I hope a few Gurus come out of the woodwork on this. Given a 140' Self support Rohn SSTV starting with a 9N base (about 6' on a leg) section, a 20' high building 8' to the south of the tower approx 100X120', what are the possibilities to use this tower/setup to produce a good signal on Top Band?
There is a pulley at 120' with a rope attached.A 105' crane for antenna work is available.Operating room for Transmitter is about 30' from the tower and inside the building so coax run is very short. Would you?:(A) Use pulley to support a wire antenna of what type?(B) Shunt feed Tower with a Gamma or Omega match and use a few elevated Radials at 20' non-symmetrical? However, you must lay the radials on the roof line or perimeter. Where is all this gray matter when I need it? All suggestions welcomed.ValN4RJ
