[TowerTalk] Vertical plans

[W5CPT]

Dr MacKenzie,
Your website has some interesting facts.  For someone who has 210 contacts on 80M using a Gap Titan I don't believe you have an information base large enough to offer the advice that you did.  You may be able to speak to the mechanical construction of the antenna, but signal wise you have a lot to learn.
