LHG, I could've brought you one I'm not using down from Lubbock if I'd known…it's been hanging from the rafters of my storage shed for the past year and a half now. I think I know your plans for this one though. lol zapzap! this one is for my base 2m/440 in the house I have a 440 for my "project"

I set 3 of us up with those. They all failed where the AL tubing meets the base and is held in place by a screw. Rocking motion or something caused them all to stress that area and break with in a few years. Replaced with a diamond X-50 We can't run them more than 20 ft off the ground when mounted on a rigid structure…now an aluminum mast on top of a 60 ft tower, they do just fine. LHG has fairly mild winds at his QTH though. |
It came in 2 boxes....ok I said no big deal, I opened one the first one and the whole antenna was in the box sealed in plastic...all good so what is in the second box? The second box is labeled Tram 1480...hmmm they sent me 2? SWEET! NOT the second box had a fishing pole I am not much of a fishing guy.....but I guess I can start!
