Just put the first coat of paint on the mast and show some close ups of top section of tower. Also in one pic it shows the trust bearing and the rotator in the box. Also paint used on mast. Thats just the first coat. Sorry for the messy garage but that gets cleaned up soon.

Towers going up Saturday. JLG will be there at 7 AM.A ironworker from work and his son are going to help me. Hope all goes well and I will try and take some pics!
 
JLG? Man, you're taking the easy way out. I prefer to man-handle each section one at a time using a gin-pole and then heave the antenna up to the top the same way. Then again I enjoy the three days of rest and recuperation after too. :whistle: Sounds like it should be a good day. Enjoy the fruits of your labour and be safe.
 
For them guys to help me and to get to use the JLG it will be 500 bucks. I didnt think that was bad. If it saves me from breaking my neck it will be worth it. Figured I could tune it in the air that way also. If I tune for channel 20 do you think it will cover the whole 40 channels pretty good with a decent SWR. 1.5 and below? Its a 5 element Maco.
