- This in the new rotating Tower at East Cork Amateur Radio Group EI7M, there are three multi element Optibeams, six element 6 meter beam, and two element 40 meter beam, The tower and rotating rings, were made byJohn EI8IR and his brother Jamie over the summer months, it is tubular section, and hot dipped galvenised after fabrication, the rotator is a conveyor gearbox, with chain and sprocket drive, the stays are Phillystran nd are commercially certified, the cables are run underground to shack. Hope to hear ye all at the end of the month
Jim, the man with the big big gun station. Nice!!!
And the total cost of the project, including site prep, tower, crane, rigging and other necessary equipment and coaxes just $1500.
That figure comes from asking the spouse.
Just so everyone is on the same page....
Great job old mate. Look forward to hearing you in Sydney

i know old vid. over all great. glad all went safe.... but grrrr the text scroll... grrrrrr wanna see video not read text... anyone seein this please narat the video.. so i can watch the damn thing
Oh my god! So I guess you guys don't know that towers hold together under COMPRESSION NOT MY EXTENSTION!!!! There have been people killed by picking towers up at the top and trying to set them down... the bolts give way. The proper way to so this it to run a cable through the center of the tower down to the bottom so that all of the weight is resting on the bottom of the tower putting all of the sections under compression. Lucky you guys weren't killed.
That was great. All the preparation, testing the antennas before hand, appears to have paid off. The installation of the tower and then the antennas looked like they all went together very smoothly without an major problems.

With all that land, I would put up a few Rhombics, who else on the block has those?
Somebody with a half size G5RV dislikes this video...!
Now that really is a tower! Nice one.
absolutely beautiful , How much $$ for an incredible setup like this ?
Great effort. Fine set up. Congratulations to all concerned.
Wow, that tower is really impressive
A work of art.
I would take a Big Bertha over this, one guy wire goes on this and it all comes down.
Clair it is for Hamradio contesting, EI7M won their class in Europe last year
What an awesome antenna system... weldone

Why not put the bolts in from the top?
So that it is easier to tell if something is off in the structure, missing or loose nut etc
