[TowerTalk] Glen Martin roof top towers

[Doug Faunt N6TQS +1-510-655-8604]

I've an 18' unit on my roof, with a C3S just above the bearing and an
EF140 about 6' above.  It's stood up well, although I am surrounded by
trees and lower buildings.

I'd trust a 8' or 9' unit with a lot of antenna.

73, doug
