[Scan-DC] I passed

[SCOTT BAUER]

  Yes, Been hammig it up for 24 years. Started as a Tech Plus. Passed 3 exams the first

day which included CW 5wpm & 13 wpm, I was a happy boy. Over the years I built up a decent antenna

farm. Finally got my tower up the same day Isabel hit. It was flipping around like a fish out of

water The guy who installed it, w3mc forgot to tighten the bolts to the beam and the wind flipped

it up vertically. He drove back and re-aligned it in the middle of the storm. Talk about customer service!!

BTW Isabel also broke my Hustler vertical from its guys and bent the antenna. I never did re-guy it.

I am really happy with it, it is one tough antenna, the 6BTV. With the roof mounted radials, It

 noticeably performs the 2 previous ( Mosley, Cushcraft) verticals I had in the past. I have

over 200+ confirmed, the easy ones 3 watts or less with the Hustler to all who are considering a vertical. 


 Regards, Scott W3CV  FM19-PB
