   Hello, Al!   
      
   Replying to a message of Al Kaiser to All:   
      
    AK> I'm off the air until I can get the SteppIR Controller fixed and also   
    AK> check the antenna itself on the tower, which I will need help getting   
    AK> down because I can't do heavy lifing and ladder work anymore.   
      
   I have a 135' long EFHW going into a 9:1 balun mounted on top of my dad's shed   
   I can't get down since my dad or I can get up on a ladder anymore.  I have a   
   beautiful Mosley RV-4C (10-40 w/ 80 meter coil) that need a new base piece but   
   nowhere to mount it at my apartment.   
      
    AK> I'n restricted to 40 meter FT8 and some CW, but this will go to in the   
    AK> sprint as I have to sacrifice that antenna because it is the source   
    AK> of RIF which killed the SD100.   
      
   All I have is 2 meter which is dead in my area except for a few nets I check   
   into weekly.
