I have built an insulated base for a 1/4 wave 160 antenna. The antenna will be XXX' of Rohn 25. In searching I see people using heights from 115' - 130' with a pretty high number around 124'. I do not know how I am going to match it yet, I figure I will do my research on that once it's up so I can learn while experimenting.... But the height has me second guessing. I want it tunable across the band, perhaps using a Tornado Tuner like my JK 801's have with a motorized inductor ? But the question at hand is do I want the antenna Tall or Short ? What is the Method behind the Madness ? :o)
Thanks in advance, Ron WV4P _________________ Searchable Archives: http://www.contesting.com/_topband - Topband Reflector
