Welcome back! Thanks for stopping by. This is a short clip showing the preparation (Gin pole installation) for bringing down my DX Engineering Hexxagonal Beam / Hexx Hub DXE-HEXX-1HBP. In that, over the 8+ years, the 14MHz element had cut due to the elements, and the only way to repair that is to bring the Hex down. Gin pole is homebrew - with 2 quick release clamps to hold it to the tower leg. As a first step (not in this video), I installed 3 SS steel guy ropes - for added safety. At first installation time I had not installed Guy wires, so.... The plan is to bring down the Hex, repair, and take it back up. Waiting for better weather.
