I'm getting a 1.4 - 1.5 SWR over the 50.1 - 50.4 frequency range. It wouldn't sink any further, even when standing alone on the mast. That's not too bad and I can use the radio's internal antenna tuner, also. I also was able to get the 2m stacked pair up on that mast, so now I shouldn't have to take that mast down again. I was able to sink the stacked pair dead flat. I'm going to see if I can get the 10m halo up on the other mast today (I'll have to drop it , of course,) and then I'll be done !! (For now.) I'm also going to forego the guy wires and use the threaded rod for supports, as you suggested. I can see this will be very beneficial with the 20 ft. mast that has the 6m halo and stacked pair on it.</P>
