Default 140' Rohn 55 Tower Construction Complete!

To me, this is what ham radio is all about--fellowship and a git 'er dun attitude! Check out these photos:

This 141' Rohn 55G tower was built in three days (over a month due to weather restrictions) with lots of volunteer help. So far, this is the tallest tower I've worked on and I look forward to the next project.

I am grateful to K5XM Trent for the opportunity, all the little people way below us on the ground, and especially KE5WXN Matthew for working side-by-side on the tower with me.

73 & good DX in 2012!
