When I had six yagis for moonbounce I had on top off a versa tower a very strong head unit. This unit was heavy and that was the reason I stopped with it. I Still have it and now I am redoing my EME station with a small mast I decided to use this unit instead of the unit I was using for a while, which was not strong enough for two meters. Maybe I can use it for a 70 cm array later….

I pulled the unit out of the bush and cleaned it a bit. I painted it and mounted it on a spare yt3a towers section. We made an iron plate between the section and the unit.

We cut a plate and drilled holes in it to connect the head unit to the tower.

Looks nicer when it is painted.
