Ed, What frequency are we talking about? I use center fed loaded slopers on my 70 ft tower for 80M. Some people use the tower (shield) and sloping wire (center). I have not had as much success with this method.
Others use a sloping wire fed at the bottom and a few ground radials - essentially using the tower as a support. Which direction are you thinking? Ed N1UR _________________ Searchable Archives: http://www.contesting.com/_topband - Topband Reflector
