[SixClub] Rotor problem.

Sometimes I'm not sure which is worse,having the antennas and rotor system 
and it not working,or,not having the equipment to put up due to financial 
considerations(where I am at present). Either way pretty much sucks. 
Anything I manage to get,6m wise,will have to be worked on a wire or a 
homemade aluminum dipole with an "armstrong" rotor.

Not complaining mind you,just making the best with what the good Lord has 
blessed me with. Hope to see some action on the band here in 
Kentucky(EM78hp)soon. With all you others are posting about it's bound to 
come!
