Hello F6CNI,
Friday, October 21, 2016
Thanks Andy, and thanks Rik, excellent info and link, much
appreciated. I may initially keep the vertical well away from the
mast, but future ergonomics would be helped by bringing it nearer to
the mast. For now, when my pulleys arrive, I will see what raising the
corner of the existing loop and heightening the vertical add to my
signal. Cheers.
Best regards,
