Thank for a great video, ill be interested in seeing the project completed and you using the antanna. 73 from London De G0STE

[@mark12.31]

For some reason I'm only seeing this at 360p which sure looks rough on a 4K TV. TH-cam issue, maybe? I know you shot it in at least 1080 lol

[@ThinKkBIGG]

It's now 720p and on my 4k screen the picture was very average but the sound even worse. 1080p is effectively the minimum despite the fact that 4k is now very accessible. Thanks for this video!

I have that same antenna GP-6 and it does great on GMRS. The bottom is at 30ft and SWR's are at 1.01 . I just bought the new Yaesu ftm-500 Ham radio and this GP-6 works great on 2m, 70cm, the SWR's on the ham is at 1.3 still good on all frequencies . I matched it with Browning LMR-400 solid conductor, so all SWR's are great and flat. I enjoy your videos so much, very educational and looking forward to see all antennas mounted and in use. 73

Good video again mate, and congratulations on obtaining your new property and radio shack, but I am still worried about Ken’s safety procedures and expertise, as well as the lack of concrete in the foundation!

i just bought & Installed a new GP-9NC what is the difrence between the gp 6 & the GP 9 ? Other than about 100$ ..lol.

[@extreme978]

My my my! You did not do that foundation no where near correct. Give a strong wind, and a few years time, that tower will lean. Flat out not safe.
