[TowerTalk] Subject: Shunt Fed Trylon 72 Ft for 160?

[Phil Camera]

I also do the same as Gene with my 72 foot Trylon.  I use a wire cage of three 14 Ga. wires arranged in a tee held out 2 ft from the tower by PVC pipe.  The tap point is about 35 ft up the tower.  I use an Omega match using Vac variables and have a KT34XA up top.  The tower has 60 132 ft radials surrounding it.  I have no trouble obtaining a very low match for about 1/2 the 160 band and run a KW into it.  It works like a champ!  Phil  KB9CRY
