If you can get that fan dipole near the top of that thing you should have a great antenna.
I'm going to need an air launcher for that. More toys!
I've got a mount at about 40 feet that does pretty well, but the 80 meter legs are strung all over the place.

The pneumatic launcher I built clears the tallest trees with ease. It's the line paying out that becomes the issue. It has a tendency to run out if I'm not careful. :Cry: :Grin:
