> CALL FOR HELP and WHEN
> I am soliciting help to move my SteppIR DB42 Antenna onto the mast of a
Tashjian LM354HD Crank Up, Tilt Over Tower.. My Moving Date is Monday, Oct
20th, at 8:30am at my QTH.
>
> ANTENNA
> The DB42 is a 5 element monobander on 6M through 20M and a 3 element
30M/40M beam, all on a 42 foot boom. Total Weight, including Tilt Plate is
about 300 pounds.
>
> TASK
> There should be NO heavy Lifting, as the boom will be lifted with a Engine
Hoist, and placed on a Cart provided by Rick, W1GHF.. which I modified for
the DB42 boom.
>
> The group task will be to manage the boom ends, and the antenna
elements..as we make our way through the cactus and other growth. Also
manage the same during the lifting process to the tilted tower mast.
>
> The Antenna will be moved about 15 feet from it current build location on
a Pseudo Mast, to the Tower Mast.
>
> The tower/antenna will be raised on a later date, after I have completed
all remaining wiring and cabling, and adding dipole arms with Pulleys.
>
> PLEASE NOTIFY ME IF YOU PLAN TO HELP
> Please advise if you can participate on Oct. 20th, at 8:30am for this
move. I am estimating it will take about 2 hours, or less. Wife Sharon plans
a Brunch immediately thereafter.
