DM9EE new tower for Optibeam OB17-4 Ham Radio Tower, DX-ing, contest 

the same yagi went from the small tower to the larger new tower.... oh, well, there are new antennas on the small tower.... big yagis help to dig out weaker signals, so people who can not install large yagis can also be worked. same applys to folks that are too lazy to install effective (not saying large) antennas.

Nobody likes a Safety Sally.

it's good to have friends with a crane that accept "Schnitzel" as payment..... lotsa Schnitzels :-)

@@CarstenDauer-DM9EE Kein pommes? You got a gutes Geschäft. :)

so, we needed hard top hat, expensive sunglasses and a tool belt ? the kids were away from danger at all times and they behaved excellent. i do not see any danger to them or the dogs.

Even the foundation is super well made and neat.

all details are on my website dm9ee.de/big-tower/

@@CarstenDauer-DM9EE Thanks from Ed. CX5FK 73

they are safer there than in a car going down the highway...... looked like everyone was alert and was paying attention

What do you expect they are not from the USA just typical inbred parents.

wtf is wrong with you people.....its a tower, not a nuclear bomb.

You send them up to connect the feedline.

Learning to help and work.

Heck I just put up a 50 ft tower, reactive force of 8,000lbs was required,, I put in 1.2 yards of concrete for a reactive force of 12,000lbs, future bigger wind turbine.

working 14hours a day 6-7 days a week. oh well, it was a business invest....so it was before tax :-)
