VERY Impressive!!
 
 
Here's something that is both a sight AND a sound - Tonno ES5TV has finally 
 completed 
his 5-year project of building a _double H-frame 15 meter antenna array_ 
(http://pontu.eenet.ee/es5tv/) . The antenna 
system  has 8 pairs of 5-element Optibeam OB5-15 monoband Yagis, separated 
by 12 meters  
horizontally and 14 meters vertically, with the highest at 64 meters above  
the ground. 
Are there any bigger 15 meter arrays out there? Tonno is now  trying 15 
meter EME 
(no kidding!) but will have to wait when the MUF is low  enough for the 
ionosphere to pass 21 MHz signals.
