Subject: Tower/Antenna Installation Reflector
CC: k7lxc@aol.com
Steve, K7LXC, approached me about doing a reflector devoted to tower and
antenna installation. My first response was no, I would hate to see it off
of CQ-CONTEST. After further discussion it appears that there are not just
ham interests involved here. Not everyone is a contester, so I've been told.
Anyway... if you are interested in this subject:
Subscribe: towertalk-request@contesting.com 'subscribe' in body of message.
Submissions: towertalk@contesting.com
Unsubscribe: towertalk-request@contesting.com 'unsubscribe' in body of
message.
Subject matter is devoted to the discussion of tower and antenna
installation.

Bill, KM9P
