Dave & group,
Just stopped by Fluidmotion, got lucky, my 3:30 didn't show up, so I got
over there after work. Made it within 20 mins of Jim leaving. All is well;
tower is up. I ended up buying two, though, since they changed the design
to 4 tubes over the old five sections.
Thanks to everyone who responded.

Ah, that explains it, my apologies. I forget that many of us, myself
included, are still working for a living. So many of my ham buddies are
retired.
You should give them a call and see if they can make arrangments for you.
They're really a nice bunch of folks. Here's the contact info:
23831 SE Tiger Mtn Road, Issaquah
Tel: 425-391-1999
Here's a Google Map link that shows their address:
http://maps.google.com/maps?q=23831%20SE%20Tiger%20Mtn%20Road%2C%20issaquah%
2C%20wa
<http://maps.google.com/maps?q=23831%20SE%20Tiger%20Mtn%20Road%2C%20issaquah
%2C%20wa&spn=0.084473%2C0.122446&hl=en> &spn=0.084473%2C0.122446&hl=en
They came out and gave the Mercer Island Radio Operators a presentation at
one of our monthly meetings and, as I said, they're really nice guys. They
also lent us a two-element beam for Field Day last year. That's why I know
where they are, because I picked it up myself.
Good luck and I'm sure they can help you out without resorting to mailing
it. Heck, if nothing else you could meet them in Puyallup next Saturday, if
your tower can remain down safely for that long.

I work in Tacoma and get home past 6. I can't imagine how I'd make it over
there before they split, but I will call them. I'm getting a little
uncomfortable leaving my tower tilted over as long as I have.
It does seem obvious when FM is so close. I may have to have them mail it.
Thanks..!!
Do you have the address of their new facility?

Michael, why don't you just drive over to Issaquah tomorrow morning and pick
one up? I can't imagine they'd make you wait a week when they're building
and shipping antennas out all the time. I'm sure they would be glad to give
you a spare part if you made the effort to drive over and pick it up.
