CHAPTER 28Supports for Wires and Verticals
Antenna installation methods vary in complexity from those that can be performed by one person of moderate strength and agility all the way up to large-scale projects that are best left to professional antenna riggers. In this chapter we suggest techniques for erecting wire antennas and lightweight rigid verticals. In Chap. 29 we do the same for full-fledged towers. Keep in mind, however, that the information given herein is merely informal guidance and what you ultimately do should never be in violation of local mechanical, electrical, and other building codes or any zoning ordinances or restrictive covenants pertaining to your property.
