Hi !

The reason not to connect the boom to the mast is that the boom, =
actually a dual boom,
on the Tennadyne log periodics "is" the feedline.  Tennadyne use a dual =
boom
as the interconnecting transmission line feeder as well as for =
mechanical support.

73,
Chuck...K1KW

  the LPDA boom to the mast.
