[PVRCNC] Ladder Line Insulators

[Nathan Moreschi]

Standard YDU mishap with math...get all the way to last step and blow the 
simple calculation...classic problem of mine in college physics and 
calculus...

100 spreaders at 18 inches is 150 feet..thanks to QPL for the correction...

73,

Nate/N4YDU
