W2CEA - Getting the 2 element Steppir up in the air!
09/27/09 15:15
Yes, busy weekend for the HVT crew! 3 jobs in 2 days.
From Cobelskill NY we headed north to Herkimer and helped Gary W2CEA get his new 2 element SteppIR raised on his mast.
Once we had it raised we securely guyed the mast in 2 places. After we finished the install we tested the antenna on 20m and was overly impressed by the Front to Back rejection with only 2 elements spaced only 6 feet apart!
