Richard, I really appreciate the thought, but I don't think either one 
of us is in much shape for moving some of that stuff around<:-))  But 
just wait until I get my 6-meter amp running.

Which reminds me, I need to go tie down the coax feeds to the sloping 
dipoles before dark, before they remove the sensors for the "cheap"
