At the year 1976 I found that it became necessary to improve my antenna's system which was until then a simple G.P. self constructed. It was a challenge for me to plan and construct the tower by myself, and so I did. The tower was simple but well done. Two tubes (2" & 2.5") worked as a telescopic system. On the outside tube I welled a ladder to climb on. All system was anchored by three guy wires. On the tower I placed a rotator (HAM 3) with a HyGain antenna (TH3-MK3).

At the year 1994 I moved to my new place of residence. To place antenna in a place like that, seemed to me impossible, because of the solar system on the roof. With a little amount of imagination and a creation sense I erected a tower that can rise telescopically through the solar receptors. This tower contains a ladder and a telescopic system of tubes that enables to be drawn out one tube from another, by the aid of a pulley, and steel wires. The antenna can rise up by this means to a height of 15 meter over the roof. (Move the mouse over the picture) |
