[TowerTalk] R25G vs. large antenna

[K7LXC at aol.com]

Howdy, TowerTalkians --
 
    This thread contained lots of anecdotal information  and I found it 
surprising that NO ONE mentioned what the tower spec from the  manufacturer is. 
 
    Sixty feet of 25G (I think that was the height of  interest) is rated 
for 16.9 square feet @ 70 MPH, 10.2 sq.ft. @ 90 MPH and 8.2  sq.ft. @ 110 
MPH. In any case it looks like you're covered. 
 
    In the future, _www.rohnnet.com_ (http://www.rohnnet.com)  has an 
online catalog with  these specs. And as always, follow the LXC Prime Directive 
to "DO what the  manufacturer says."
 
Cheers,
