Well done F8FKI! Few Qs: 1. No need for red light at the top? 2. Metal ball at the top for the prevention of corona? 3. What king of ground system is planed? 4. What kind of matching? I tune single band EDZ with 0,11L of open wire. 73 de Mario, S56A, N1YU.
Hello Mario, yes I need light on top, Prévention of Corona no, all is Aluminium. Ground 120 Radials 1/4 wl + switching elevated radials, Matching LC.Best 73...F8FKI Manu
Chapeaux Manu respect à toi et tous les amis qui ton accompagnés pour le montage de ce big pylône 💪💪 Bravo encore pour la technique de levage magnifique !.. 73's à tous 👍
Sacré boulot tout de même pour le montage de cette antenne Nickel la vidéo sur le travail effectué Espérant que les tests seront à la hauteur de vos attentes je vous souhaite à toute l'équipe une bonne continuation !!! Hervé
Fantastic accomplishment however I had very much the same thoughts about lightning protection, ground system and matching questions as s56a below. Please post another video while operating, would like to hear this antenna in action hi. Felecitations et 73's - Guy
chapeau :-) maintenant il faut que tu nous apprennent, suis impatient de voir les résultats, c'est quand même un sacré boulot, bravo à toute l'équipe 73's de Jacques - F1APY
Bravo à tous, ça fait réver pour le 160m HI.... Déjà avec 20 m verticale et 20m en oblique ça décoiffe alors 54m verticale chapeau bas et bravo. Au plaisir de se contacter au mois de juillet sur l'air. 73 de Pierre F5AGQ
Amazing job....good team work.....but it the transmitting element just that bit on the top....looks to be around 20 to 30ft.....or is the whole tower the antenna?
Thil you can see that in my Log,hi.....Antenna work very well....in the futur eventuelly modified in vertical array...but in 160m...the more Important is the RX..;-)
Tiens un hibou français en FT8 sur 160m à près de 2h du mat' ..? Bienvenue au club ! Evidemment obligé d'aller voir sur www.qrz.com/db/f8fki : Belle installation et merci pour la vidéo de présentation.
it is very dangerous to lifted a tower like that if you do not have the right ranging gear for the job and the right people to its ok getting help from friends or radio guys but they really have to know what they are doing after all it cost a lot of money you need to do it ones and right the first time great antenna for top band but it look to me that the anchor points are to close for that tower the base plate for the tower that hinges i would have made it thicker wall did you use a Cable Tension Meter for the guyed wires great job all around any way every one and yes like some one said do not forget your light
He already did it right and at once! How do you know the wall thickness and the distances to the anker points? Lighting is only necessary and only if required by the authorities, usually above 100m of height.
What an enormous erection. Rigger required; must be experienced with steel erection... lol. At first I was wondering how you were going to get the red and white tower on top of the other one until I saw it was only the gin. Fffar out! even the gin is big. Thanks for posting this on here btw. I thoroughly enjoyed watching this.
Seems a shame: such a large tower without a beam on top. Nothing on top! Is this dedicated to one band only? Is it shunt fed against ground; I think it is not insulated from ground. WA5KM
From engineering to construction, I don't think is could be done better! Very nice!
Merci à tous pour vos commentaires....l'aventure continu...les prochains projets aussi...TNX all for your Comment.....Best 73....Manu F8FKI

Outstanding. Would love to see a video of operating that antenna.
yes id love to hear the 10 0ver 9 noise ??? do u rx on this antenna
Now make it a portable for Field Day!
Мы такую поставили на полевой день (высота 27м) -статика прошила 3 см. Обязательно заземлять
Sacré boulot tout de même pour le montage de cette antenne
Nickel la vidéo sur le travail effectué

That's a really huge one - I never thought that a pipe, two beams like this can support a huge tower like this. 73 de SQ2KTN

Belle installation et merci pour la vidéo de présentation.
So, I make test with 42 radials, and tune the Antenna on Top Band...very nice...
If you wand, look on my Facebook....surch Manu ANTONI.....
молодцы!

Wonderful antenna.
many dx,73!

Very nice antenna indeed. I hope meet you on top band soon, congratulations! Dick PY2RO
Super la vidéo, excellentes images avec le drone, bonne continuation.

Are the guy wires insulated? Only saw some thin plastic tubing around guy wire hank at tower end.
Tower isolated, Wire PVC all isolated
Super...
Fantastic antenna! What is the name of the first track that you use?
Affaire à suivre ... 73s de Damien F4AZF ;-)
Bonjour
Et au final quels résultats sur 160 quels dxcc, OC,AS ? Merci 73 Bruno

So many experts. And voodoo audio sucks dick. Not the man, he's just ignorant. I mean the fools with their so called "hi=fi" ssb.

What's the swr on that?
now the question is , what do you feed it with, and how?
That is my vertical antenna for 160m nothing else, no tower to put beams or so
parallel feed?no insulators
👍👍👍DL2MGJ👍👍👍
qrz?
Nice vertical but....... but the muzik....... :(((
What an enormous erection.
Rigger required; must be experienced with steel erection... lol.

Ohuel ...
where the hell do we see how it worked?????????
on the band.....
Very nice.

Be a good video if it wasn't for the music
Sorry reminds me of the Bee movie gay scene in a bar
Sorry Bad wether, rain, it was not easy
Seems a shame: such a large tower without a beam on top. Nothing on top! Is this dedicated to one band only? Is it shunt fed against ground; I think it is not insulated from ground. WA5KM
the KiloMike you could see the base of the lattice had insulation under it before it attached to the pivot section I thought.vk2krr
Yes only one band, that's not a tower, that's a vertical antenna for 160m band
La musique est horrible
