[Towertalk] K7LXC

[Ford Peterson]

My favorite is when he draws out his phaser to solder connections from the
ground.  That takes talent!

Have you ever seen him swap a rotator using the transporter?  Well, you
won't.  He only does that on his own tower (he charges everybody else by the
hour and the transporter is way too efficient).

And that little whirley gig do-hickey.  You know, the one like bones uses to
diagnose problems?  Steve's got the version for antennas.  It is so small,
it fits in his pocket.  If you watch him close, you will see him pull it out
and turn it on.  If you listen close, you will hear that
tweedle-tweedle-tweedle noise.  He'll turn around and say something like "I
think it's the 20 meter phasing harness, about 12.18' from the feed it
appears damaged."

He heads to the truck, pulls out a CDRom, plugs it into the duplicator and
POOF!  A new harness. Simply amazing!
