[Elecraft] Greenlee Cable Caster

[Jay Rutherford]

Hi Jeff,

You wrote, "Has anyone tried a Greenlee Cable Caster for stringing up 
antennas?"

I looked at the picture in the URL you provided, and wonder if this 
device could sling something nearly straight up and over a tree. I use 
the real mccoy slingshot gizmo and it shoots a weight w--a--y up in the 
air over the tree and back to the ground. Also, the weight is strong 
enough to pull the fishing line down through the branches to the 
ground.

The size of the "gun" in the photo just doesn't seem like it has the 
shooting power of the slingshot. You can really pull that sucker back to 
get it over the top. Scary, but it works FB.
