A new tower — not mine
I have long been remiss in not reporting on N0HR’s tower progress. I’ve been watching this fairly long process (for those who have not put up a tower, it takes much longer than you think) with great fascination. And, to be honest, a great amount of envy.
But, great pictures of the process and a ton of information about all of the other stuff that goes into putting up a tower and antennas.
Here are the links and a quick summary of the posts:
- A beautiful day to put up a tower. The end result of all the work — but before antennas go up.
- The nuts and bolts of building a ham radio tower. Yes, there really are lots of nuts and bolts in putting up a tower.
- Tower foundation is in place! All the details in getting the foundation ready to accept cement.
- Ham radio tower progress. Progress on the foundation.
And this doesn’t represent the posts on lightning protection, grounding, selecting coax and all the other details about what is needed for a great tower installation.
And now you know why N0HR’s blog title is “Ham Radio — A contact sport.” Take a visit for some great information.
