Even if you can't be here try to check out the live tower party at
http://www.k1ttt.net/webcam/, camera 1 should have a good view of most
of the action.  Work should start on 7/5 about 12z on replacing the top
2 antennas of the 20m stack with 3 new ones... wx permitting of course.
The after completion bbq probably won't be televised.

A tram line will be used for the top one (telrex 20m646).  Removing the
4L telrex at 105' could be interesting as the boom has been bent by
winter ice and wind.  New antennas are m^2 4 element yagis, the bottom
ones at 40' that will point south and at 60' on the ring rotor are
already in place.
