SPARC members are all welcome and encouraged to assist at the assembly, repair and erection of antennas at W4GAC. 
Starting at 9:00AM on Saturday 12/16, the tower will be lowered to replace the rotator. At the same time, adjustments will be made to accommodate the center support for the new 80/160 dipole. The south end of the dipole will be attached to a tree near 90th Avenue. The north end will terminate at a new “tower” to be installed at the north end of the property. Finally, a new 40M vertical will be installed on the tower atop the shipping containers.
Everyone is welcome. Workers, assemblers, hold diggers, supervisors, laborers, students, etc.
