The old antenna mast has been removed. He had to make way for a floor on the house. After almost two years I installed a new mast. This is on the roof. The mast is a tripod with a height of 4 meters. A Pro-Sis-Tel rotor cage containing a Yaesu G1000SDX rotator has been placed at a height of 2 meters. The rotor contains a 2 meter long pipe. A KLM KT34a 4 element beam for 10 15 and 20 meters hangs in the mast. Each leg has 8 tiles of 40 x 60 cm with a total weight of 216 Kg. This is the counterweight for the mast. The mast is equipped with 3 guy wires. The next step is to change the standpipe for a 3-meter one. This offers the possibility to place a 7 element 144 MHz beam.
The KLM KT34a beam has been replaced by an OptiBeam OB 9-5. This is a 9 elements 5 band Yagi.
