Tink,
     40 is basically a nightime band with a lot of fading in and out. It is la bit of a challange, but that is what makes it fun.

Bob and all,
Here is the photo I promised of the 40' tower for the wind turbine. If it doesn't work out for the turbine or if I sell the turbine then I'll put a woppin antenna up there! any how here it is. My welding got better the further I went and it hasn't colapsed yet so I think it will hold even with the 200 lb turbine on top.

That is the easy part. I use the gin pole and my truck to pull it up and down. I hae pictures of that but too big to post. I'll take them again at 640x480.
