Before you go and cut down this UHF slotted dipole antenna Off the top.. My questions are.... Do you Own the Tower? or just another Tenant using it? make sure that No one using it. it may no longer be used for a translator, However It may still be used by a local LPTV station. Personally I do not thing that the slotted dipole is the cause of interference... On our Tower the static problems were caused by oxidation on the Guy Cables and in the tower sections... We ended up Bonding all the Tower sections together with straps and lube all the Guy cable Connection points with Lithium Grease. this solved our repeater noise problem for almost 2 years... Just recently the noise came back. BTW I would use the Lithium Grease on each of the sections of the G7 also then use Heat shrink to seal over the joints so the weather does not affect the grease.. My G7 on 220 has been in operation since the late 80's with no problems... Neal KA2CAF CE/CO WTTM,WYGG,WUPC. Jack Davis wrote:
