Hi again folks.
I have two questions.
I am mounting the RV-6-C on a 8 foot pole mounted to a 2 x 12 lagged to
a 4x4 buried 4 feet in the ground. The 4x4 support is for a fence. On
top of the fence sits a 2x4 with a 2x6 flat on the top.
1. I want to run radials as recommended by Mosley. I was thinking of
using stand offs every 3 feet to isolate the radial from the wood cap. I
would run 10-12-15 on one side and 17-20-40 on the other side. The radials
would be tied to eye bolts to give tension with a manual tensioner on each
rope for each radial. Will this work?
2. Since the antenna plus pole is 30 feet above ground and we
occasionally have winds of 30 to 60 mph here in Houston, TX, I was
wondering about guying the antenna. The bottom of the guys would be tied to
Eye bolts. I was thinking of PhiliStran but still need to know how to
connect it to the Antenna and at what height so as to not effect the SWR.
Any and all help would be greatly appreciated.
