I have NO antennas up until at least the weekend and then likely just some wires as I have blown the window for major antenna erecting. I spent too much time revamping some ideas and such and then was hit with a leg injury perventing me from climbing most of the summer/fall. Oh well next spring it all goes up come hell or high water and maybe even then!
