Well today was the day!  I lifted the tower with the new 3-el SteppIR and
everything functioned in the nested position.  It is now at full height.

While I would like to say that my first contact with the new antenna was an
ATNO, I had to settle for a Route 66 and a couple of Salmon Run stations.

There are too many names, but I want to thank everyone that helped to make
this project a success.  From labor, material, advice, moral support and
more...Thanks so much!!

My wife came home just after I made my first contact and turned to the dog
and said "well I guess we won't be seeing him anytime soon"...;>{)))

I will be running it through it's paces this coming week to make sure I'm
ready for CQP and the upcoming DXpeditions, that are all ATNO's for me.
