Video: Greyline DX Flagpole Antenna vs. Tropical Storm "Cristobal"

by Greyline Performance يونيو 11, 2020

WATCH A GREYLINE DX ANTENNA STAND UP TO NOW-HISTORIC TROPICAL STORM "CRISTOBAL" in W9, USA.

"60-75 MPH GUSTS WITH THE FLAG ATTACHED!"

Note: We always recommend pulling the flag down when severe weather is expected. Mike didn't mind the show of strength.

June 10, 2020: A brave customer wrote in with this security footage when record-setting Cristobal blew through his Indiana home QTH this week.

"Two hours after installing the flagpole antenna Cristobal came to Indiana. The weathermen were predicting 40 mph gusts. Does this look like 40 mph gusts to you? Me either. Your product stood up to the storm without flinching. Shortly after the end of the video, we lost power for about two hours! Now the flag is just waving in the breeze. Remarkable.

73,

Mike

PS. Weather report said we had sustained winds in excess of 60 and gusts up to 75 in this storm. I don't know exactly what I saw but I think gusts of 60 is not an exaggeration."
