@adelarsen9776 Год назад

Note : It's best to put a loop of coax just under the connector to stop the weight of the coax pulling down and creating a break in the inner conductor and stopping it from working. In short, cable tie a loop of cable so there is no weight on the coax plug.

@JDubbsadventure Год назад

So at first I had the loop and I got crucified for it an now I keep hearing I need the loop. I can’t win for loosing

@adelarsen9776 Год назад

@@JDubbsadventure Well it's quite simple. A coax hanging directly on the plug will cause the inner conductor to break from the centre pin of the plug. It stops working. It's standard practice to put a loop and take pressure of the plug. If it's not convenient to do it right under the plug then do the loop 16 inches down. The whole idea is to stop gravity and the wind from rattling the mechanical joint between the inner conductor and the plug centre pin. Oh, and don't think that lots of cable ties will fix the problem either. Gravity and temperature change will still break the connection. Does that sound logical ?

@JayantMathur1987 Год назад

@@JDubbsadventure keep the loop large. Coax breaks of the loop is tighter than 1-2 inches. Make the loop huge like 6-8 inches so there’s no chance the coax will break inside.

@brianvandy4002 11 месяцев назад

@@adelarsen9776 If you look, he has several cable ties and the hose clamps. When he lowers the mast you can see the wire gets slack between the sections, so the weight of the cable is NOT on the connector. It isn't an issue.

@MrPocketfullOfSteel 11 месяцев назад

@@JDubbsadventure *haha!* In all seriousness, a little loop.....not that big a deal. You did a fine job there, IMO.

@l.a.2646 Год назад

This is the best thing you can do for the price! I use old fiberglass masts for portable work with a heavy duty speaker tripod ( like what a rock band uses for holding their PA speaker cabinets up off the floor) what really makes these tower/masts better is making aluminum brackets to mount a good pulley for pulling up the center of an inverted V antenna or inverted L type. But you can mount and stand off VHF/UHF antennas mid mast as well. Have fun with it! Hi to Axle ! He says "c'mon and play dad!🙂

@indridcold8433 3 месяца назад

My last installation, I used a long length of fence pipe. It is galvanised and metal. Thus, it made a good connection to Earth. It is, unfortunately, heavy. But, I only had to install it once. On top I installed the customer's Hustler 6BTV antenna with one segment missing was installed. Regardless that it had a missing segment, it did just fine. I did not know enough about it to know what was missing. I just did what I was told.

@fishnfreak18 Год назад

Awesome idea. I just ordered one on Amazon after watching this. I live in a rent house so I wanted to have a temporary mast set up for an antenna so when I decide to move it won’t be too difficult to take apart. I can’t wait to get my stuff set up. Maybe we can have a conversation when the skip is good!

@JDubbsadventure Год назад

Glad to help. I hope you got the link working most people have problems with it. It’s worked awesome with high winds not bothering it at all. I did put guy wires and use them when it’s fully extended. Word of advice rise each section all the way and put a sharpie mark si you will know that it’s fully up
