[TowerTalk] BIG 80m antenna

[Don Moman]

Quite the imposing structure on the skyline.  True beauty - for those that
read this reflector anyway.  I'm curious as to why the elements are that
large, especially at the tips - they are still about 3" diameter.  Lots of
wind area and lots of surface to collect ice....  There are  more and
detailed pictures under "antennas" and a few more under "mast 2" as well.
All very interesting and tnx to Jim for pointing out the link.
