Jeff, You will have problems with attempting to shunt feed a 100 foot
grounded tower on 80 since it approaches a grounded half wave radiator
and just to long on 80. The solution for this is to make a decoupling
sleeve on the tower by elevating the 80 meter feed up the tower and
bring down
I've done exactly what Herb suggested: hung a sloper for 80M off the
side of my 160M shunt-fed tower. Neither antenna knows the other is there
and both work pretty well - meaning I'm satisfied with what I get out of
them.
Interesting. I have tried verticals, slopers, inverted V's and other
80
A buddy of mine has a 100’ 25G tower and wants to run it on both 160/80. I’m
thinking a par of shunts will work for that?
If you have done this, I would be interested in your comments on the general
implementation.
Thanks!
