    Forty Meter antenna on a Tower up 40 feet Cushcraft D-40 Yaesu G-450 AME-25 40 footer with a rocket top and 4 feet buried in concrete. The choke balun is new but I moved the antenna from a push up mast that was too close to the house.

    The crazy expensive rotator protection boxes forced me into a home brew to protect the Yaesu G-450a. I put one of these at the base of the tower and in the shack using $5 worth of MOVs and some stuff that I keep on hand.

    It's an antenna patch panel. Radios on the left, antennas on the right. Most of the antennas have surge protectors here to go along with the outside antenna tower protection. Dummy load by MFJ also mounted behind.
