[TowerTalk] myth about engineers?

[Richard Karlquist]

 I actually participated in carrying a 70 foot tower with multiple
 beams from one location to another 100 feet away.  I was one of
 the many rope holders.

 of the tower will be when laid out? They thought we could stand it on 
 end and carry it over with antenna in place? I've actually been asked if 
 we could do that. Well it was only a 50 footer with a tribander on top 
 with a 2-meter yagi 10' above it. Fortunately those circumstances are 
 rare, but so is finding every thing laid out and ready to go.
