TOWER & ANTENNA - 2



A dream of any Hams is a Tower.

Almost everyone in the hobby knows that a radio station is only as good as its antennas usually need to be mounted high above the surrounding area. That eventually leads radio communication enthusiast to say to themselves “ I sure wish I had that in my backyard” whenever they pass some tall commercial-type radio tower.

As much as we’d like to have a big tower in our backyards there are a number of potential roadblocks that must be overcome to get the tallest and the best antenna support structure or tower possible lack of funds can definitely be a big roadblock. But it doesn’t have to be that way, you just need to make the most of something called a “Resource Triangle” TIME, MONEY and SKILL that triangle can be adjusted any which way. If you have lots of time and skill you can succeed at most any project with very little money, or if you have lots of time, but very little skill and money the project still can be accomplished, it will just take much longer. You get the idea…….
