[SixClub] Towers

[Rental Cars LLC John Carson]

In regard to your wench and fixure problems. Having spent many years in
the radio broadcast biz, I would recommend that you contact a major high
power AM station in your area. When you call ask to speak to the chief or
asst. ENG. Briefly describe your problem (with any luck they will be hams,
all the better to help you). See who they recommend and go from there.
Most ENG's are good folk and willing to help(as long as your not asking
for any money!!!)

If you are near Tampa the station to contact is WFLA.


Hope that helps.
