"Dwight Stewart" wrote in message .. . Where can I find an inexpensive, freestanding (or lightly guyed), antenna tower? It doesn't have to support a lot of weight - a couple of small 2m radio antennas and one or two scanner antennas. And it also doesn't have to be very tall - thirty to forty feet would be just fine. I'm sure others would be interested in this also. Dwight Stewart (W5NET) http://www.qsl.net/w5net/ Go to your hardware store and buy a Aluminum ladder. Clamp it to the side of the building and guy as necessary. Just an idea. Dan/W4NTI |

The area is about two and a half feet wide - just enough room for a cement slab to support a small freestanding tower. After that, there just isn't any room to run guy wires out very far. What there is (the building and a nearby fence) isn't going to provide a strong support for guy wires. Dwight Stewart (W5NET) http://www.qsl.net/w5net/ |
