[TowerTalk] Fwd: Zoning question - Putnam County Florida

[David Calder]

I wish I could find the pic I took of a wooden extension ladder being used
as a tower just North of Palatka one day (Putnam Co.). I about died
laughing. I wouldn't have even asked! Sometimes it's easier to ask
forgiveness than permission down here.

I know a few hams in the county if you want to talk to any of them on how
they did it.
