The tri-band is up

Saturday saw the full installation of my tri-band V-2000 vertical antenna. I’m hoping that some hefty Rawl bolts and Loctite will keep the antenna vertical and secure. The brackets are galvanised T&Ks and the short mast has a good wall thickness to reduce the chances of bending etc. It’s connected by thirteen meters of military spec coax to reduce losses.

Here are a couple of pictures to show it in its full glory.
