For those who don't know, Kurt is a Mechanical Engineer by training and really knows his stuff. He makes part of his living doing serious tower work for hams. Jim Lux is also a serious, multi-disciplined engineer working at Jet Propulsion Labs (the guys who put us on the moon, Mars, and other difficult places to go. They know what they're talking about. I know Kurt; I've never met Jim.
