[TowerTalk] separation between 40m rotary dipole and 3 element beam

[J. Hunt]

 Have my 40 meter rotary dipole 8' above the quad band beam, parallel with the beams boom, opposite side of the mast pipe.  
The opposite side cancels some of the shear forces on the HyGain Tx2 rotor.

The same stub carefully placed as described in this link in the 40M 
feedline to suppress the second harmonic of 40M will also kill 
interaction of that 40M dipole with 20M. The first link is text, the 
second is the slide deck for talks I've done on the technique.
