It's long and has to be rotated around each set of guys if not trammed

No need to rotate around the guys. My post said to drop the guys. No
need to work around them. The 4 el 40 was 40 plus feet long as were my 5 el
20 m Yagis back on the mainland. All went up without a hitch....one man.
Agreed to have extras around for safety, but out here in the country of
the Big Island that is not always possible. All antennas here have been
raised without a tram, except for the monster 4 el M2 40 meter which had to be
trammed to 150 feet in the never ending tradewinds. It was uh, exciting.
