Got sick

I had planned to be at SJ2W this whole week but managed to catch a cold and have been lying in bed for a few days. So plans are to spend a bit of next week at SJ2W instead getting some spring work done outside.

For the Swedish people here, I am in hunt for another tower. I need it to be 24-40m high and hopefully strong enough so I can make it rotatable. The backup plan is to build a tower but I would rather get hold of an already made one. Plan is to use it for inband operation in the future (maybe next year?) so I can put a triband stack in it and a 2el for 40m. I’ve been playing around doing some simulations of putting 3xJP-2000 tribanders which would be awesome (3el 20, 3el 15, 4el 15).

A thicker model (thicker than 280mm side) of the WIBE towers used by the military would be an OK backup plan. One could weld cross brases to stiffen the tower up making it possible to make it rotatable.
