    New setup starting today!!

    I've been saving up for quite a while,and my new tower/beam installation begins today.

    We're putting up 70' Rohn 25 G,Mosley Ta 34XLW,Ham IV,2 Hangers with pullies for wire antennas.

    I've purchased all this stuff new over the last 3 years.
    I'm having it professionally installed,weather permitting,everything will be up in 2-3 weeks.

    It all started 5 years ago with the building of the new house out from town on 6 acres
    Yes,I was thinking ahead when we bought the place(I didn't tell her )
    I'll update as progress is made.

    Awesome, Mike! Three years is quite a while to wait, but you're doing it right!

    Looking forward to hearing the updates ... and to the resulting sked, if the propagation Gods allow it!

    Good deal!

    I have a 70' Riverside which is sitting at a friend's house. It needs to come down then get transplanted here. I'm thinking about buying a TA-54XL for 20-6M then putting 11el on 2 and 13-17el on 432 above it.

    Really ought to look into a short (20-30') tower for side-of-the-house mounting then put up an Oscar Mode A/B/J antenna arrangement on it. I've got a lot of sat-capable equipment but no antennas for the stuff.
