Too heavy OM....
DataID 2 months ago
Back in the day I worked at the Hy Gain factory in Lincoln, NE. I packaged quite a few antennas. Packaging for these monsters was all done by workers hand packaging everything. Probably little has changed. That was about 1977 and don't know much about these other than we had some huge ones and then some bigger ones. CB craze was dying. I was a kid taking orders so I know a lot about the military antennas I helped make and very little about these but it sure is nice to see them up and working.

@AlzbetaMadragana ...it's for ham radio only; nothingmore. Sorry, that kind of antenna won't help you.

Looks like the #5 director got cock-eyed, an easy fix?

I talked to a guy using one of these once. He had a very strong signal and dug me out of the noise very nicely!

Hello..Thank you for your comment..No the antenna is not mine, I just helped put it together..The antenna belongs to Dave W5SV who lives just north of Austin, Tx..The antenna is quite large..The longest element is 46ft, the boom is 36ft & the antenna weighs roughly 160lbs..It was an interesting project to say the least..Thanks again for viewing & commenting..73s, Mel
