Hi all
Thanks for all your replies, sorry I haven’t replied before now, I have been very busy with boring things, work etc….
I am going to try the simplest way and have mounted the ATU below the deck and have connected it up with a shroud type aerial run up the mast insulated from everything else.
As the masts are now stepped for the season I will see how I get on and make something more longer lasting for next season.
I might go down the route of the triatic but I thought the idea of an aerial was that it was vertical not horizontal, Bill you say you use an inverted “L” and you find it works well, do you find it directional?
One other quick question is there any easy way of testing the set-ups output easily?? Apart from calling another station up?
Thanks again for your help
Best wishes
Michael
