[TowerTalk] Testing C-3 near ground

[sawyered at earthlink.net]

I have found the "point in the air" method works much better on monobanders
than on multi band yagis and linear loaded antennas.

 

Much better is to try and find an ability to get the antenna 20 - 25 ft in
the air with a rope over a tree or some other support.

 

If you have a tower, just pulling it up 20 ft on the tower works well and is
usually open for a temporary pull up.
