Tower modifications.



?
Augered down a little over 4' with a 36" auger on a Bobcat hoe.

Then made up a 4'x4'x12" box. Lowered and supported the section of tower and poured 1.5 meters of concrete.









We used 2 1/2" angle iron and 1 1/4" x 1/14" x 8' square tubing.



















Yaesu G-3000 Rotor Absorber Mount on a lowered tower rotor plate that is 11' down from the top.

This helps to strengthen the tower. The mast is 2 1/2" and then 2" welded inside for the final length going thru the mast bearing.



==================================

January 3rd 2021

Put up Mosely Signal Master Super-33 Multi Band Beam

40, 20, 17 Meters 3 Element Yagi.

The tower is a Delhi 48' DMX Heavy Duty.

Made it into a fold over.

Beam is up at 50'





Special thanks to Scott VE3PSN, who helped with the final assembly of the beam and who did all the climbing, and neighbour Dave who did the welding mod on the tower. Between Dave and myself we came up with the design. We made sure it would take the 95lb load of the Mosely beam.













Scott VE3PSN helping me do the final assembly out side.

We had a bit of snow earlier in the morning.

Luckily NO wind!!!

Ironic that it has been on both families farms.

Out of all our equipment I loved my 1992 John Deere 9500 combine with 25' grain head the best.









We sold the farm in 2015 and had lived there about 57 years.

The farm was 158 acres. My brother and I farmed around 1000 acres together. We rented land and did custom work. Planting and combing the crop for other farmers.

We had a lot of fun drag racing.

This was back in the early 2000's.

We sponsored several drag cars and also an Allis D21 pulling tractor.

We have been selling AMSOIL Synthetic Lubricants since 1993.

I am an AMSOIL Direct Jobber.

Everything that happens on Earth happens in cycles. The only straight line is in man’s mind. There are no straight lines in nature. Everything is nature is formed by spinning spheres, or waves. Spinning spheres emit waves. We know this happens with the planets; they emit electromagnetic wave. Waves are everywhere in the Earth’s atmophere (and in outer space) and waves create cycles. Cycles affect just about every aspects of our lives on Earth. There are lots of different cycles of different lengths. However, the major cycles tend to be somewhat harmonic (they’re divisible by three, to find the next higher or lower cycle). Major cycles are 7, 19, 57, 172, 515, and 1030.
