Giant Cu Cactus antenna
Neighborhood covenant was recently ammended to allow vertical antennas and
to exclude beam antennas other than TV antennas and smaller. Fortunately for
me my tribander was already grandfathered in, I lived here before it was a
neighborhood.. I want to make the best of a Rhon 25 tower I have stored
away. My tower is 50ft tall and could be extented even taller using vertical
elements that did not support a load other than themselves. I was thinking
of tuning the tower into a Giant copper Cactus antenna for 20M thru UHF by
fastening 1/4 wl stubs on the side of the tower. Any reason why this would
not work.
