[TowerTalk] Pay me now or pay me later

[Cqtestk4xs@aol.com]

Anyway, I sure hope we'll hear that Bill and Tom are both taking conservative 
approaches and that their projects turn out great. Pay now so you don't have 
to 
pay later. Be healthy...............................K1IR

Although I am 58, judging from the shape of most hams at hamfests, I am 
probably in better shape than the average ham.

However, Jim is right.  It does take me longer to get to 200 feet than it 
used to and I have a left shoulder that dislocates if put in a weird position.  
It is for that reason I am not tackling this monster alone.  I have an 
experienced young blood who is doing it with me, and my trusty wife is the truck 
driver for the tram ride down for the KLM big stick.

For those of you not aware of it, the Yahoo Groups..Tower-Pro is an excellent 
source of what is going on in the Pro World of Towers.  If you ever want to 
get a taste of how dangerous it is up on the tower, just read the posts on 
their reflector.  Seldom does more than a couple of weeks go by that someone 
doesn't get killed in a pro tower accident...and these guys are pros.  IT IS 
DANGEROUS UP THERE!  Be careful!
