Winter Antenna Work

December 10-11, 2005

 

The top bracket broke from the weight of the coax. US Tower replaced it with a stronger arm. The collapse of the arm caused the connector for the two meter antenna to break from the LMR 600. It was easier to remove the coax and repair indoors. The coax was redressed. The boom of the MonstIR was pinned to the mast because it had slipped. An 80m dipole was added to the top of the tower. An attempt was made to use a board for mounting it but it was in the way of the coax as the antenna rotated. It was removed and it was attached to the coax arm.
