This is a first at my station....  a large Hornet Nest on the end of the Boom 
of my lowest Hygain 105CA (5L 10 meter Yagi) on my 100’ Rohn 45 tower.

The nest is located on the underside of the end of the boom (24’ long) and 1st 
director, which puts the nest about 12‘ from the center of the tower and 23’ 
above ground.

Does anyone have any experience successfully dealing with this situation?  I 
would appreciate learning how you killed the hornets and got rid of the nest 
without getting hurt or doing anything dangerous.

Tnx & 73
