[TowerTalk] Fw: Beam Height above tower

[Stan Stockton]

Thare is no reason to put it up more than a 6 inches unless you are  
trying to gain height or provide more separation from another antenna  
at a fixed height on the side if the tower all of which would be  
better accomplished with another tower section.  The closer it is to  
the top of the tower the fewer problems you will have and it will be  
easier to get to if you do have a problem.
