Hi,
I was going to mount my bean heading for europe and thought I could set it east but after searching on the the heading for europe from PA it seems to be more north at some where in the 50 degree bearing. That looks as though it cant be right in my mind.
Is this correct?
Thanks,
Roger
I mounted my beam in between the rain drops, we got little break but later more rain is coming.
Tomorrow will be nice in the after noon so they say, after work I will get the Imax up and hope to get the coax on. I messed up two 259 connectors today, I melted coax on one install, forgot to put...
I had a 7000 for three years as a base and it was great. I am in the same boat as you as to have to sell equipment to buy some thing to add to the shack. I sold my 7000 and got a used pro 3 and love it as much as the 7000. I do miss two things though, the hookup for the display to be on my...
This is what I would like to put up just to try it, it has been in my garage since 2003 when I got from some one who did not have it up long and it is super condition. maybe on another tower but the xyl might have a few words for me since I already have two towers standing.
I took the mosley...
NVIS, I don't want that. I know the manual for the ocf says get it up at least 25 ft. I will not finish it this weekend, It is raining hard today and supposed to Sunday too. That is my luck.

Yea I was thinking it may not hold after I strung the wire of the OCF out to see how long it is. The long leg is 88 ft and it felt very heavy just that one alone.
I was thinking of a pulley, might get one tomorrow and that way I can lower the OCF if needed. I am going to glue a small piece...
My neighbor is a ham, been one for a long time. He never gave me any problems even when I was just a chicken bander lol,he never bleeds me and I never bleed him as close as we are. Today he came home from work and gave me the thumbs up.
The weather is great too, 68 and slight breeze. Here...
Sorry you pulled a mucle, that hurts for sure. Yea with spring here I have no reason to not do it. I will be soldering ends on my other three coax runs from the remote switch to the antennas, putting a standoff on the tower for the OCF, mount the antennas and make a bracket today after work...
Well I am finally motivated into getting my antenna system up graded with more antennas on my tower. What has been holding me up is I did not get my rotor rebuilt (HD73) and been very lazy for to long lol. I still in fact did not get my rotor done but can not wait till I get her in to Norm's...
Got the switch on the tower at a hight I can reach with a 2 foot step ladder for easy access.
I am one that is never satisfied with things I buy and have to make them better in my little ways and this is a pic of my idea, I took the muffler style clamp and replaced it with a 1 1/4 inch...
