This is a huge trailer mounted tower that Bill is standing in front of. I think this was a 100' tower, and they had one twice this size on the other side of the lot
Here is one of the guys that climbed the tower to service the antenna briefly. I'm not sure, but I think the antenna was 3 element phased 80m folded dipole. It looked like a folded dipole yagi, but it also looks like there is coax running to all three elements.

A couple more shots of interesting rigs. Nothing new here, but it's still fun to take pictures 
This is the ultra compact Yaesu FTM-10. It's a really small VHF/UHF mobile that can be installed just about anywhere. The face is detachable like most mobile rigs.
And, this is the TenTec Orion II:

@ Geoexplorer69:Coax question. I just put up a new Sirio monsoon base antenna with 100’ of rg8u coax testing with myMFJ antenna analyzer shows 1.4 swr at 26.965mhz and a 1.1 at 27.405 mhz . When I checked the ohms it’s steady a 30 ohms across the entire bandwidth.
