I am in the midst of designing a new station for KH6 and it appears I may be
putting up some Rohn 55 as a support for a wind generator to provide
electric.
It certainly would be a shame to let a good 60-90 foot of tower be wasted on
just that and the thought occurred to me that the tower could be used as a
support for wire antennas as well as possibly side-mounted Yagis.
Has anyone had experience with mounting antennas on the same tower as wind
generators? If so, what was the experience with RFI on the antennas? And if
not on the same tower, has anyone had experience mounting antennas anywhere
near the wind generator and what, if any RFI was noticed?
KH6 law restricts hams to one 90 foot tower and it would be nice to have
another sky hook up for inverted-vees/guy wires.
