KA1GJU Super Station #1 Antenna Overhauled!

#1

Unread post by KA1GJU »

Super Station #1's antenna was getting progressively shorter and shorter with all the wind storms as of lately. I dropped it down and soldered the sections back together yesterday PM. Re shot the line up and over the Maple and Black Cherry trees in the cow pasture with the pneumatic tennis ball launcher. It's now back to ~200' long and works much better! Was down a little longer than expected, due to having to replace spool of fishing line on reel. My spool didn't have enough line for the +300' shot up and over the trees!
