[TowerTalk] JK Mid Tri opinions

[K9MA]

I put one up last summer. It seems to work fine, though the f/b appears to be only 12-15 dB. That’s not necessarily a bad thing.

The SWR looks very good measured at the shack, closely matching the published curves. Strangely, when I measured it up at the feedpoint, it looked different, though not really bad. Feedline loss is too low to explain that, so I don’t know what to make of it. W3JK predicted this effect.

I’ve not tried load it on 12 or 17.

73,
