[TowerTalk] 40 meter beams

[Iowaguy]

I just installed a CushCraft XM240 on top of my 130' rotating tower about a
month ago.  It's a nicely built antenna and has nice bandwidth.  I set mine
up between the CW and low phone setting.  SWR is 1.7 @ 7000 and rises to 2.0
at 7300.  It just went through it's first test with some wind (57 mph @ the
40' level. . . don't know what the wind was at 130') last week. . . it did
fine.

73 to all. . . Dave
