Hi,
Putting up a 10 through 160 or 10 through 80 meters dipole. I have lots of
wire and coax and a 1:1 balon. Interested in how the shape or form of this
dipole should be to work properly? I have to put it into two trees to get
height. Are there any good links or sights to learn proper making and
installation?
Thanks.

Also, make sure that one end of your dipole is fastened to the tree
with a weighted pulley system, so that when you get strong winds the
dipole won't snap. I run the line through a small pulley attached to
the tree and then hang a brick off the end of that line. Works very
well in winds to give the dipole some give.
