Good Morning,
First I want to take a moment to say thank you to those that sent me off list E mails with advice. I have a couple tweaks I have been thinking on. One is due to easier set up. setting up my 3 element yagi & my 70CM 6 element yagi @ 90 degrees to each other. Still using two radio's so I can be full duplex. What are peoples thoughts as to setting my antennas up 90 degrees to each other?
The other thought is that I have what I call a "ball" compass there is North, South, East & West on the top & the same on the side with degree marks on it. All I need now is something to tell me how many degrees up from the horizon I am. I thought if I could find something to print out with degrees to scale on it and put that on a piece of cardboard, wood or something. Then take a string & put washers on it to act as a counter weight. The string would stay in the same place but the scale would move as I point the tripod up or down. Then I would read it to know how many degrees up or down I am from the horizon. The problem is I don't know what there called so I am not sure what to search on google to find the scale. What is that called?
