Ran a Dump truck locally for about 10 years until the great 2007,2008 Obama fuel expense hit good. Ran with some guy hauling sand from off of the railway. These 2 dudes had novelty train horns, they had alot of fun messin' with people. They'd wake a guy up when they met ya, very loud in my ears..

I've been watching some of the storm chasers the last few few days here and there. I know a lot of them are Adrenaline Junkies but they seem to be another warning device of sorts. Man I feel for anyone who goes through a tornado. Ran my dump truck, at the time, in Joplin after that big hit...

Okay got it. Really turned out nice it seems.

Let me try this again and be more specific. Did you do the Welding and Fabrication of the antenna metal pole assembly or hire it done? Looks like really nice welding and fabrication work.

Are you doing that yourself or someone else, look heavy ? Edit: I guess it's already done at this point.

Pretty good rain and who knows what coming down here in SW MO so if it passes I'll check it out

Might be one of those need to pay extra things.

Aah, that explains it. I miss that run but it was a long ole day from SW MO. Always had to do the Blue Beacon wash at exit 75 or beside TA. Glad those jokers aren't plugging 19 like that, although they were usually just shootin' the bull,when I heard 'em, just sorry choice of channels.

Oh man, sorry that happened to you and the 3rd beam too. I'm glad you all are unharmed though. I was questioning in my mind about the insurance paying, hopefully.

Yep I've been to Amarillo several times going down to Clovis and Farwell off of 60. Seem like about half of the times there would be a couple of guys on bases or whatever plugging up ch 19

My apologies @The20poundhammer for dragging you thread out to the tower section.

So now I'm curious what antenna you put up on that one?

Okay I've had time to look around on the internet and check out your Tower. That's one big nice tower. That's a big ole wind force too. You've got me go get the tape measure out and figure out just which Rohn Tower I do have. Apparently it's HDBX48 wind load 18. Silly Rohn site says maximum...

at first I thought you meant on the ad but now you mean remember here is in Ireland? Yeah that's not going to work my mistake. Well I'll try to remember that next time thanks

Oh now I can clearly see, I didn't even see that nice winch up there. Yeah thanks for the clarification.

That's a tough looking setup. So I guess that's a pulley about halfway down what looks to be a fairly heavy I-beam and the out to an electric winch motor. What's the winch attached to? Is it on like a receiver hitch to pop on the back of a pickup and I don't know why I even have that thought.

It's nice when a guy can just do his own thing and when he wants. The free standing to tiltover Sounds like a good plan, I'd guess you'd need a full bottom plate to keep the legs from bending. I actually made some legs with the thought of a tilt but I'm doubting if the legs might cave a...

Something like that was what I was questioning, before the other sealing methods.

Aah I was just curious what it's gonna take. I've got a good 48' free stander to eventually figure out how, and who to help. Appreciate the reply. Hope it goes very smooth .
