The V5000 is the best antenna I have this far. Its is very quiet on the RX side witch I realy like. The battery is there just for backup. The second picture from the top show the power supply that serves as a battery charger. Its 45 amps continous and it only cost me $125 new. Its intended to be...
Thanks Park! Here is a few of the tower with maco v5000 and Diamond X300A You can see part of the 135' Dipole going through the top corner of the bottom pic also.

They talked about doing this before and fuel prices are still high. If it was going to make a diffrence everyone would have to not buy fuel for that day. Chances of this happening are slim. I like another idea I seen on another forum and it was to not buy fuel from the biggest oil company witch...
I think mine went out once because of being set to high but the other times it was result of static. Both the times it went out as result of static I was not home to disconect the antenna when a storm rolled in and when I got home the RD16HHF1 was fried.
