Get it while you can.  The tree surgeon did the work early this 
afternoon complete with violent thunderstorms only miles away and we put 
the 40 tower with the AV-640 back up this evening with the help of 
WD8BPT.  I still have to put a connector on the coax at the patch panel 
so you still probably have a day of so before 6 folds for the summer<:-))

I have 30'  of 25G back guyed that we use as a raising fixture.  The way 
it is now I would be able to raise and lower the whole thing by myself. 
OTOH it is still a lot easier with two people. Two is still better than 
the five required before.

I haven't seen them yet, but I shot a bunch of photos of the guy working 
way up near the top of that old Ash tree with the Hy Ranger near full 
extension with the storm in the background.
