Skipp, I use two Mitrek decks, one TX, the other RX. No discernable
desense but agree with the other posts that you have to blow a lot
(emphasis lot) of air on the TX to keep them cool. I did an
experiment time vs. temp on both the UHF and VHF Mitrek that I'd be
willing to share if you send me

Hi Fellow Hams,
I am working on a CAT-200B but has some hesitations in making

100 foot tower needs at keast a 100 foot radius groundingcircle.
Do not use wire for any ground since wirew does not have much surface
area. Grounding straps like 1'8' by 4 pluss inches is good for each
ground point. Plenty of surface area.
Use many many rods along the radi. I use 36. every 10
What would the price be?

Jason,
McMaster-Carr has a HUGE selection of stainless steel U-bolts, in
several SS alloys. Go here:

Any Home Depot I've gone in do not have stainless U-bolts although most
hardwares, including the Depot, have everyday stainless bolts.
It would be nice to come up with a supplier of stainless U-bolts that will
deal in small quantities and have a decent variety.

Thank you Eric. Just what the Doctor ordered. Hopefully they sell direct to
the public and don't have some outrageous minimum order.

Hi Fellow Hams,
Yep, been there, done that, and I can point you to a
gentleman that shunt fed a 900 foot tower at 160m.
What is that - 1.8 wavelengths?
All I know is that he was doing quite well in the 160m
contest, even with a puny 100w.
