Richard and all:
Forgive my ignorance, but what's the difference between the DXcc and the
DXdd?
The DXCC has been highly recommended to me for my new qth with a small lot
out in Colorado, and I was planning to make the purchase this week.

Subject: dxcc and dxdd
Hi;
Just looking at the alpha delta info and since the dxdd and dxcc seem to =
be about the same price why would you go with the dxdd? Is there some =
advantage on 80 meters?
Also I have to measure but if this is possible it would basically be a =
flat top with nothing holding the center. Any suggestions as to light =
coax?
Also one end attaches to a tree. I have heard all the stories about =
throwing rocks, using a bow etc but what method has worked for people? =
I could invite my friendly tree trimmer over but once he scampers up the =
tree how best to attach some rope?
The other end would have to attach to a chimney mount also used for 2 =
meters. I wonder if the weight and pull of the antenna might give me a =
chimney problem? I don't want falling bricks in January.
This is very much in the thinking stage so any input appreciated.
Richard
