Sorry to hear that Joey.  I can identify with you, but my back and hip 
are not nearly that bad although a few hours of lifting things and they 
don't have to be heavy, or sorting things on the floor in the shop will 
send me to the pills and a few nights of sleeping on a heating pad. I 
just went through a reaction to one of those anti-cholesterol drugs.  
I've pretty much reached the point where I hire the tower climbing done 
which I find very frustrating.    My back yard is covered with antennas 
on sawhorses. A rebuilt tribander (TH-5), a force 12 C-19 being 
reassembled, The C3i, 7L 6-meter Yagi (READY TO GO!), two C3i FO-144-12 
2-meter Yagis, AND an M^2 40M3-125 being reassembled. I know I'm missing 
some.

The guys are coming over to finish removing the old mast frot he tower 
today.
