[AK-VHF] Playing in the dirt!

[Edward R Cole]

A quick note to say the 6m tower is going up.  First stage was 
putting in the concrete base, yesterday, after digging the hole 
during the week.

Today, I will install the base plate and finish up the conduit trench 
to the tower base and check the 70-foot 7/8 inch coax lines for loss 
then connect and seal them into the conduit along with the rotator cable.

Not nice wx at 32F and 18mph blustery winds, so I will wait a day to 
start assembling the 20-foot Rohn-45G tower and work instead on 
making the rotator plate for the tower in the garage!

May have the 6-element yagi installed by Saturday or Sunday.

For now I can run 125w on MS;  I will be working to have 800w (min) 
for both EME/MS in the next month, or so, depending how testing goes.
