[TowerTalk] Mast Rising Fixture.

[n4kg@juno.com]

Hello Herik,

The technique I use is to attach a come-along (Power Pull)
at the top of the tower and make a rope loop attached to 
the mast using two clove hitch knots.  For long masts,
it is necessary to move the rope loop a couple of times
or remove the rotor plate.
