I¡¯ll have as much done as I can before you get here (antenna and rotor mounted to mast, cables taped to the mast above and below the rotor, guys attached to the mast, etc.? We¡¯ll just need to put the antenna/rotor/mast top piece onto two mast sections (in the launcher), stand it up, slide it sideways about 8-10 feet, then crank it up.? When we get it stood up in place, I¡¯ll check the cable once more from the ham shack to make sure there are no shorts (5 minute check), then up we go. ? I have plenty of beer when we¡¯re done.? ? ?

I need four folks minimum, preferably five. Should take an hour or so.? Maybe we could get lunch before or after.? I¡¯d like to shoot for Saturday, but Sunday would also work for me.? Long range forecast looks good (sunny, but a bit chilly) both days.
