[TowerTalk] Advice pse : Log Periodic versus small Steppir

[Steve Katz]

::Can you reference any specific reports on this?  I haven't seen any, but then I really haven't been looking for any, either.

My T8's been up since November 2001, so it's going on 8 years, through tons of wind and lots of vibration and it's still perfect.

It is funny when a very heavy bird lands near the end of one of the longer elements, though.  Element tip sag can be a few feet.   When the bird takes off, the up and down motion of the element tip makes one wonder...but after 7-1/2 years and thousands of heavy birds landing and taking off, I stopped worrying about it! -WB2WIK/6

Tennadyne antenna are quite common.
