Hello All,
I am toying with the idea of putting a 432 Beacon on the air from EN35DW.
Right now I have a single M2 9wl at about 20 feet horizontal and
capability to run up to 100 Watts.
I do have a second 9wl but need a nonmetallic cross boom to stack them. If
anybody has something like that let me know.
I have done some research and My thought is to head the antenna Southeast
generally in the direction of Milwaukee, Madison,and Chicago (140°). That
would intersect the main approach path to Minneapolis-Saint Paul Airport as
well as departing traffic to the Northwest as they circle around to head
for destinations anywheres from the Northeast to the southeast. Probably
would get quite a bit of aircraft scatter during peak times.
Any thoughts on this would be much appreciated as well as maybe suggested
Beacon frequency.
