Why the choice of HexLock vs TiltPlate?

Before we used the HexLock this year, we did in fact build the SB on a TV 
tripod nearby. Then we would gradually walk the SB up a 10 foot step ladder and 
shove this top mast section into the rest of the mast, match holes and shove 
bolts into them. This was all done way up over our head - quite precarious !


This sounds like what W6ARA does on field day.
I'll ask them if they ever considered your
method.



The HexLock is a safer and quicker alternative.
