Guys 

The tower trailer is here but would need some one with a 1/2 or 3/4 ton truck with a 2'' hitch. My vehicle is to low to the ground , can't keep the steel wheel off the pavement while towing. Just let me know and I will have it ready to roll with your vehicle.

Everything was easier than I could expect, especially that I could 
connect from my house and only on the 12 foot pole. 
The Hospital link was easy and fast, again even on the short pole. 

I'm a little nervous for the Red Cross site, the actual building is down 
in a hole and behind the water tower (I did the connection from up the 
hill with the short pole). 

I'd like to get a temporary antenna on the chimney, for Field Day, or 
have Phil bring the club trailer, but time is short and I have things to 
do at the Damascus Volunteer Fire Department as well. 

I really need some club members to help, I can't get to the Red Cross 
until 14:00 on Saturday. 

I also am putting up another link on the mountain, to reach Damascus, 
but time may be too short.
