Well I am not so sure on that one just yet. Was told that the first element was 26" from the top, and each element was 58 1/4" center to center from there, and if that is true, then I'm going to end up with my last element down into the clamp area. I've been sick most of this week, so have not really messed with it. Hopefully Tuesday I will be feeling better and will be able to get the harness on the antenna then.
Mathew Thank you, Mathew. I had been following the discussion of element spacing. Now I need to measure my spacing to see if it is in the right range - I suspect not. What was the spacing that you determined was correct for yours?
