Re: Antennas for 160m
Milt & Jerry,
Interesting stories. I have never fallen off a ladder, but have my own story. I needed to working on a roof mounted antenna so I got out my 15ft extension ladder and put it up.

I reckoned you would just take a few feet out of the bottom.
Old guys should stay off of ladders. My XYL gave mine

See you on the Double Header

Re: Antennas for 160m
Barry:
Thought about taking out a chunk of the tree just below the antenna and then gluing it back together, but problem was how to hold up top of tree while sawing of a few feet.

Easiest way to lower the height is with a chainsaw.
Bonus is wood for the winter.
Hope to see you on the doubleheader
