Hi All, We are planning on getting the HF antenna up on the tower tomorrow (Sunday) at 11am.
The weather looks like we are going to be good till about 3pm.
We need at least 6 people to help get this thing up in the air.

I can jump over for an hr or two but i think the weather forecast looks bad.
it looks like the first nice day will be Saturday and Sunday should be nice
