This is Mike Barnard, I and a fellow ham built a windam 6 through 80 
meter antenna.  One leg is 42 feet, and the other is 90 feet.  We 
strung it between two trees, I have a rope and a pulley system so I 
can let it down.  For the center I have a 6 inch plastic piece  with 
a oblong hole for the latter line.  it goes up through and I have two 
holes on either side.  One to hook up the wires and the other to 
secure the wires  so it can't pull out  and disconnect the 
laterline.  It then feeds to a 4 to 1 balum  to coax.   I just got it 
up this week, and also this week I retired from Amphenol so I haven't 
done much with it.  But from the little use I had I was a couple of s 
units better than the loop antenna I have.At 06:49 AM 7/19/2013, you wrote:
