[TowerTalk] Source for 2" OD Mast

[Jon Pearl - W4ABC]

Hi Chris.


http://www.w4abc.com/Masts.html

Well... between Christmas, digging up my sewer line and 24 hour shifts 
at work -- it's slow in coming.  I've had the page up for a few weeks 
and was going to get to it during Christmas vacation.

It's always easier to point to one spot where information lies rather 
than hunting-up and then sending someone ten links.



73,


Jon
