[@ham1296]

Johann...I just watched your video..was holding my breath watching the hexbeam in the wind, WOW !!! It survived..you must have built it well. Considering Hexbeam at my qth so was watching youtube videos on all hexbeams when I encountered yours. Again WoW. 73 de AA9YP

Hi Jay, just one thing to know about this antenna.you must choose the best spreader you can, because the sun burn them a lot, and when there will be windy, the spreaders will break.but really nice antenna, now i have spiderbeam HD with best results than hexbeam, but it's not the same size and weight.....have a good day, and best dx with hexbeam.73's johann F4FEP

Nice antenna and location! I suppose a rigid centre post would prevent much of the flexing. 73 de MW1CFN

yes, she has survived, and works great lol. but the tv rotator is dead ;-((

[@bills1613]

F4FEP Did it work well with the TV rotor before the storm? And did you replace it with another TV rotor? That same rotor is all I've ever used here because of the cost but I'm thinking of putting a larger antenna on my rotor about the same footprint as the hex and I'm wondering what to expect. Thanks. I'm glad your hed survived!
