I have a 65 foot tower in the back yard. It used to have a tribander on it. Now it supports:

  • a 40 meter delta loop at 60 feet, which I use for Winlink RMS Trimode on 40, 20 and 15.

  • an 80 meter inverted vee, also used on RMS Trimode

  • on a cross arm at 55 feet I have a VHF/UHF omni, used for Winlink RMS Packet (on VHF VARA FM)

  • Two AREDN network nodes, one of 5.8 GHz (primary network access) and a 2.4 GHz node as backup.

  • On the chimney I have a mast with a cross arm that supports:

  • a 220 MHz sleeve dipole for a couple of local repeaters

  • a 6 meter/VHF/UHF tribander, used for local repeaters.

  • anemometer for weather station

  • on a short mast on the peak of the garage I have a VHF/UHF omni, used for Winlink RMS Packet (on 2 meters).

Hmmm.. that's a lot :-)

I like the antenna/cable management you have on the walls. Curious what kinda of antenna setup you have as well.
