It appears to be in good physical condition. It has the tilt over base and
rotator which has some light surface rust. It's missing the pulley collar.
It has an electric winch to extend and retract the mast but I couldn't try
it out because there was no power at the QTH and the up/down control switch
was broken and it was raining. There's a 6 element beam and something like
a Ringo Ranger mounted on it.
