Added a metal pole to the wooden mast to give me a new total height of around 14 feet long with a wood plank to even out weight distribution of the overall mast design, and its sturdier than ever. Thinking I might add a guy wire or two later on.
Otherwise, I also now have the yagi hooked to up 100 ft coax to get to the shack and now that theres no mismatch on coax impedance. Signals are now a little more clearer, and the noise floor dropped by at least half an S-unit, with RDS now being easier to decode again as before. MS pings look much better than before, so lets see how things go (:
