[TowerTalk] Swinging Gate Side Mount - AdditionalTurning Radius?

[Jim W7RY]

Agreed Arne!  That is the way I'm going to make mine. No need for the extra 
piece welded to the angle under the rotor plate. I neglected to mention 
that.

below the rotor plate .  That is what I did in 1991, got idea from a friend 
in Oregon, call not mentioned as he is not all that active recently.   A 
company in Oregon made some of that design.   Mine is a dual yagi system 
rotating a LJ-105CA (element locations OK) and a slightly modified LJ-155CA 
(had to lengthen boom on one end about 18 inches and reposition elements to 
get adequate clearance).
