Hi, I recently downsized my original SAL-30 to a SAL-12 due to property constraints. I am a bit disappointed regarding its performance above the AM BCB and rx sensitivity is lacking dramatically. It p

A few weeks after installing my SAL30, the system failed. Looking at the LED's in the combiner, when the direction was changed, each one lit up quickly in sequence, then they all went out. I would see

Is it possible to modify control to have 4 directions instead of 8, but still have BI and FLIP? Maybe option of going from 8 to 4 and back to 8, if necessary? With intermediate RDF setup I rarely foun

I am putting up a SAL-20 in the back woods of my city lot. It is close enough to other transmit antennas that I am concerned about damage to the front end. Mark KB7GF gave me the 16V zener part number

Hello Mark, we tested the AS-SAL30 today with the original amplifier as well as with the amplifier you delivered in mid-September. With both amplifiers, strong intermodulation products are created her

Thanks Mark. Will download it and have a play Ian G3ROO

I am trying to evaluate a SAL-20 for low angle signals. Does anyone have an EZNEC file for any of the SAL antennas (preferably the MKII series).? Thanks, Ed W2PH

Hello Apex friends! We have severe problems with the Apex-30 here in Germany due to intermodulation interference. We don't have these problems when using an Apex-12. Can it make sense to reduce the fe

Is a common mode choke recommended on the SAL-30. If you use one what are you using? Rich - N5ZC

Good afternoon everyone, My fiberglass mast has been destroyed for the third time. I would like to try a new mast this time but made of iron instead. I´ve been looking at the SAL30 Mark II manual and

I would like to mount the SAL 30 6' above ground to avoid deer and hopefully decouple from the ground (I have terrible rocky soil). Anyone have any pictures of one mounted high?

Hi All! I am a new owner of an AS-SAL-30 Mark II. I built it 3 days ago, bought from DL6EAT. The antenna actually works perfectly, but it generates very strong ghost signals of 0-30 MHz. It is not due

Mark, Would it be possible to produce an amplifier board on which you can switch the amplification in 3 or 4 stages by means of switches or jumpers? Best regards Marco Steiner

My old SAL-30 got trashed in a storm and I want to convert it to a Mark II due to the ease in erection. I will probably put insulators in the horizontal part and feed through windings on a small #43 t

Curious about where most of us stand with the SAL 30 and your DXCC numbers. ie where might I expect a plateau? (I seem to be nearing mine, altho the COVID damper on DXpeditions the past 1-2 years blur

Is it required for the SAL to be near earth? Just wondering if anyone has used an SAL atop a building with typical commercial asphalt building. Is so, any pitfalls in performance? Thanks. John
