Hi
I am doing some planning for an VHF repeater on the top of a
9000 foot high mountain top.
The coverage is to the valley floor about 4000 feet below the repeater site.
To get good valley coverage I have been contemplating using a
1/4 or 5/8 wave antenna mounted upside down.
I am looking for suggestions from those who have had experience with upside
down antennas.
I know about the radome sealing problems and lightning protection.
The antenna will also be subject to high winds and ice loading.
Wondered about shadowing of the mounting structure in the pattern.
Thanks for the help
Byron
