Well, anyway, it is, it was a project just to get the hex beam down to where it was going to assemble on the tower. The tower came down not as well as I wanted it to. You know what happens when you run out of winch cable? Yes, it dropped about three feet onto its stand but nothing happened. Oh, it was, it was almost heartbreaking but it all worked out. The hex beam is now mounted on the tower. That was day one. Day two, everyone came back. We had four people raise the hex beam up. It just touched the top of a tree. Had to bend the tree out of the way with some ropes. The hex beam is now vertical. The tower's locked into place. The wiring's all done. I just have to solder five wires down in the ham station so I could put the proper connector on for the rotor controller and I think I'm back in business, Jack. The project is almost done. We did have to cut some holes in the ceiling downstairs to run the control wire but it all looks good. Everything's back together but it's been a project since Saturday until about 4.30 yesterday. This is WW7KN. Back to you.
