Spent a couple hours this afternoon building a new standoff/yardarm for K4MK’s new 6M vertical. We spent about two hours last week fighting w/his 15-ft version & were simply never able to get it held horizontal–just oo much moment, etc.
This one is a simple, small 3-ft angle iron version. I should be able to handle it by myself….
Mowed the yard at the old QTH. Still fighting the pollen. Everything is still pretty much just covered with the stuff.
Tomorrow, Shaun & I head to Darlington to take down the 190-feet of 25G.
Found out a supposed job evaporated yesterday. Client sent out a picture of his new tower/antennas, installed by a crew of local ham buddies. No word, no mention, no nothing…odd, to say the least. Work continues to come in, however. So it goes, as Mr. Vonnegut (& Ms. Ellerbee) used to say!
W4CYS got his local gov’t approval, so we’re ramping up his new install, at long last. The zoning review took literally one day after KR7X sent in his stamped plan.
stay tuned…
