    Base Sirio New Vector 4000 Install

    For the beam, I drove a piece of pipe in the ground and the mast pipe slides into it. So I can turn it by hand. The mast is a 20 foot piece of fence rail and no guy wires. Edit: maybe not 20 feet. Maybe 14, I forget.

    Wire in an external PTT line to a CB radio
