Well I am doing the prep work for my Gulf Alpha Dual Band SAT Antenna. It should be here the week of October 11th according to Pete the owner of Gulf Alpha.

I just finished getting the tower up today, still need to pour the concrete, since its bracketed to the house the concrete is the last step.

I'll take pictures as I add everything like the G5400 rotator and then the antenna.

Ok the G-5400B rotator came in today .. Better than expected, everything was still in the sealed plastic bags. It was replaced by the 5500 but for $400 how could I go wrong.
Now I just need the Delta-Fox ST-1 Computer interface and the antenna to arrive.
 
Pete makes Great antennas..
i have been using his beams for years..
Gulf Alpha Beams are hard to beat indeed..

Though i dont use dual band antenna..
but instead a 2 meter.. 70 cm and 1.25 meter beams

Also Pete's antennas are as easy to build as an antenna can get..
Yet last for yrs and yrs of trouble free service

    Hello gentlemen and Ladies. I have the dreaded RCI-2990 receive issue where my radio gets distorted when people get close to my location. I found the C90 Capacitor, but I can not for the life of me find the C89 capacitor. Can or does anyone have a picture of the exact location of C89 ? Thank you in advance, Wes
