20-M BEAM PROJECT: January 31-February 6, 2004 extended
We're doin' it! Braving the winter cold, if you
can call 30 degrees winter cold, and putting up our 20-m beam!Check for pictures on the Projects page later in February! The picture seen to the right is the antenna being put up in the 60's or 70's. Unfortunetly, there's no date on it so we can only assume ...
We're extending past our orgininal completion date due to the fact that we decided to build a hinging system on our tower to make it easier to put the antenna up rather than have 30 some feet of scaffolding set up in this cold weather.
We'll keep everyone posted!
