[Elecraft] RX noise and 2-wire lines (was: KPA1500 RFI on 12m)

[David Christ]

Sometimes it happens,  I got permission for a 30 foot tower and a K4KIO beam.  When asking permission I emphasized the emergency and public service angle and showed I had a one million dollar umbrella policy.  Those are dirt cheap.

Had a picture of a similar installation which kept the scary imaginations under control.

Eventually I was able to get our very strict guidelines changed to allow "reasonable" outside antennas for licensed amateurs.  And so far, no complaints on my setup.

I read these things, look wistfully out back into my 30’x30’ townhouse courtyard, and wonder if I can dare put my Buddipole 40M dipole up one more foot without attracting the ire of some resident who will report my illicit activity to the HOA.  That’s about as big as my antenna projects can get 🤣🤣
