That's been one of my favorite configurations too. I'm debating on that out here in the woods where I live now but then I"m also thinking about two Sturba curtains cut for 14.300, one looking north/south the other east/west. I've also got three sections of tower I"m going to do something with. My vhf/uhf vertical he tried and true J pole is higher in the big old oak tree than it would be on the tower with some mast coming from the top. Another option that's come to my adled brain now and then is shunt feeding the tower. HOwever shunt feeding it would mean burying some conduit for control of the motor and apparatus. tHe two vees are sure a thought that keeps running through my mind though. 73 de nf5b Richard Webb, Electric Spider Productions, Eads Tn.
