Just found that if I set the feedpoints on Elements 1 and 5 at 45 degrees as mentioned on page 11-item 7b of the instructions, and shown on the Feedpoint Detail page; that the loading wires then also shift to 45 degrees off horizontal- is that right? I thought the loading devices should be horizontal. All the pictures show them that way. Again, thanks for the quick response. Oh yes- the studs that are Slightly off horizontal have the markings lined up such as >< on the fiberglass. Reason I'm being so fussy here is that when the beam goes up on a rooftop Glen Martin tripod it's not an easy up, nor down due to roof configuration. I know it is lightweight and if the situation were a tower it would be different, or even a semi flat roof. I don't have to worry about interference from the roof as it is an old house and there is no electrical wiring in attic crawl space - it all stops at the second floor. TIA for easing a worry wort. -- Roger Doran, W1MZA, On The RockBound Coast of Maine So Much To Learn........
