Howdy All,

I'm getting ready to put up a Rohn 25 Insulated Base ~1/4 wave vertical.
(115') and I'd like to get some advice if possible.

I'm using guy brackets. Any reason to use Insulators between the Big Grips
/ Phillystran and the brackets like is recommended on higher bands ?

Any preferred goo or concoction to put on the tower sections before joining
them ? Or nothing ?

Any other advice on the tower / radiator itself from folks that have BTDT ?

My plan is 115' and I'm using a Rocket Top at the top. Without any mast I
will have my 115' but I plan to insert a mast into the rocket top (8') and
have it Inside the tower, not extended above the top. I figure if it
resonates too high I have 8' to play with up top.

Thanks, Ron, WV4P
