A twofer sounds like a good swap to me...

I have finally completed the installation of my second tower.  It tops out
at 73' with an additional 12' of mast.  My plan is to put 144Mhz at the top,
then 220 MHz 4' down, then the 5 el 21MHz another 4' down, then 432, and
finally a cross arm for 903 and 1296 at the bottom of the mast.

Now to the point.  The Fourlanders currently owns 4 M2 144MHz antennas.  I
put up all four for one June contest from Wine Springs Bald and vowed never
again.  Now that Jim has taken on two meters, he has agreed that he to will
never put up all four.  "It just ain't worth it for a portable operation."
On the other hand, the club owns no 432 antennas.  I have two K1FO 432
antennas which I would like to trade the club for one of the 144 (that the
club will never use).

As members of the club, how do you feel about this offer?

73's
