Tom,
It's 136 feet long, with 49 feet on the short side and 87 feet on the long
side.
Mine has no center support, just end supports. Short end is closest to the
house, about 20 feet away and at a height of 25 ft. Long end angles up
towards a tree and it's highest point is about 42 feet. The last 20 feet
of the long end drops down and away and is tied to a fence. Moving the
tree 30 feet or so was not an option. Next spring I'll plant an acorn a
little further out for future antenna support.
This odd configuration may have some effect on swr, but don't really
know, and can't do anything about it.
73, Steve KW3A
