[ADXA] TF3ML

[Crownhaven]

I wonder if that lash-up was originally made for antennas.  I’ve never seen anything like it.  Guessing US DOD gear we excessed there?  You’d think we’d be familiar with it.  It appears the hams in TK are quite prosperous!

I’ll be glad to give you points in the contest and anyone else who needs them up to 2.3.

He would have a hard time pulling that trailer around the roads of Arkansas.  I try to keep my top antenna, a 6M Moxon at 11.5ft above the roadway but still snag a low hanging limb occasionally.  I carry replacement parts for the Moxon.
