A really good entertaining video of how you've got a first class antenna system based in wet soil. A truly enlightening and educating video! Thanks, Arbo!
Yes 3 x6 meter, plus 2 times 1 meter overlap + 2 meter for the router house with 2 meter pipe you get 18 meters. No I do not have a video on a windy day, I used a couple of times during a important contest or dx-pedition I needed for DXCC and than go on a windy day for 2 times 2 meter overlap and end up at 16 meters. And with windy weather I go lower thats the whoke idea of the constuction ;-)
A good quality film end nicely to see. You can see that the tower is made of high quality materials. And that you have much plasure and a lot of fun with a tower like this 73" Al.
Leuke mast mooie film maar ik zit te kijken naar het handmatig lieren, waar is die fikse stroomkabel voor in dat kastje . Ik zie namelijk niet dat er iets elektrisch wordt bedient. Misschien mis ik iets. ?
well,i would have like to see how you setup the inner tube mecanism that raised them with the manual winch?? would you have any videos of how this is made?? thanks gervais,ve2ckn
Nice video Arbo, im not a good contructor as you are, my project not realized 100%. 10 points to you after look your video, seems a good tower. I hope you cam put detailed schematics of all in the web soon. 73 de Xavi, EA5ZF
Have any of your neighbours complained about the antenna and mast (I am referring to the appearance)? I am sure they would complain in the UK. We also need to apply for planning permission, do you have similar regulations?
@m0bob Hello Bob no, no one did. In the first place when you stay within the restrictions you can build a small mast. I extra applied for a permit to make sure that I did not got in to problems in the future. First I discussed the form and size with my direct neighbours and they were posit if about it. One neighbor over who's garden my antenna is partly moving had no problem with it at all. But I am lucky that he is such a nice guy. As soon as the mast is not fixed at the house you need permit.
Thanks Mohammed, as you can see it is a 2007 video. There are still some drawings foor the local officials for the approval but the technical drawings are probably gone, most of them are hand made, and there is a technical strength report with some drawings but in Dutch. If you are interested in these send me an email via my qrz page.
We'll what's expensive, compared to construction masts with the same hight it costs about 40% of such an investment. 10-40 I am active but in some contests also on 80 and 160 with a temporarily wire antenna.
Tja daar dachten de buren anders over, in de afgelopen 15 jaar is 12 jaar geleden de ene buur verhuisd en 7 jaar geleden de ander. Overigens staat de mast 90% van de tijd omlaag.
Excellent Video, I was impressed with your first video but this is great, a lot of hard work and dedication, nice purpose built shack Adrian EA5/G0KOM-ZC4MK-VP8COI

Hello Ian,

Hi, Tony the software is Hamradio De Luxe,
it is freeware of the best sort.
Good DX and best 73!
Real good job on the video.
Can you tell me about the mast is it custom made? Obviously the foundation part is?
73, Ray. 2E0RFX.
I leave it up as the weather allows. Otherwise it's a 1 minute job to lower it by hand.

Very inspiring work. Nicely done.
