[TowerTalk] misaligned vertical towers

[Patrick Greenlee]

When anyone comments on the slight lean just explain it is a finely 
calibrated lean to adapt the polarization to cancel the coriolis effect on 
the Poynting vector and if it had been done in the southern hemisphere at an 
equivalent latitude you would have leaned it a bit the other way.

Yeah.. what you're trying to avoid is your ham buddies coming over and
saying "hey, as I was driving down the road, it looked like your towers
are leaning"
