We at W0EEE have a 50 foot tower on top of a building on campus...  One
of our alumni suggested (and we have been considering) shunt feeding our
tower for 40 and 80...  We will obvoiusly be using an antenna tuner, but
what is all required to shunt feed a tower?  It's a 50 foot tower....
It has guy wires and such....  Help?

Thanks
