Hello All,

I have always been thinking of turning my TX455 tower into a 80 meter 
vertical using a gamma match. I will be running 100 watts. How much 
problem will the crank-up sections create? This tower is new. I was 
thinking of noise generation at where the tower sections come together. 
Any arcing at the tower sections during transmitting? Is this just a bad 
idea?

73 es tnx,

Ken
