Tedd says:

The antenna is 400 feet up, on the side of a 600+ foot tower.
It's 1/2" Andrews Heliax, and from the antenna to the shack
I would say maybe about 475 feet? The shack is about 75
feet from the tower, plus the 400 feet to the antenna.
Well, that will make for an interesting experiment.
I would agree to use a tuner between the feedline and
the repeater. My suggestion would be to tune for lowest
tx swr. You probably will lose some on the rx, but bad
sensitivity is easier to live with than fried PA transistors!

73 & good luck!
