We don't make dipoles. We buy them and have somebody else put them up.:lol:

Also note that it is located in Rumpus.

Put plenty of grease on yer coax. It will keep the swrs from stickin and messin up yer swing.;):agree:

They sell SWR grease on flea bay.

You can make your own SWR with paraffin and silicone based conduit lube.

Or you can just spray it with PAM. Works well--the electrons slip right back along the cable jacket to complete the circuit.

No no no, ya got it wrong. The idea is to keep the swrs from stickin to yer coax. The grease will make them slide off, and keep them from getting to yer diapole and screwin up yer swing. Damn extra hams, don't no nothin.

Corey gets the joke....

Now, about that fence.... Got a lot of chain link here, but isn't it all grounded? How can it radiate with all that ground?
