     Don't let the manual throw you. You can almost put the whole thing
together without the manual. Assembling the 40M elements will necessitate
reference to the manual. The other elements are all bundled together and
marked so you can assemble them without confusing yourself with the manual. A
C-4SXL should take you 5-6 hours.
