Triple O and Tim and whoever else is following this with interest. We had the best weather yesterday after the storms went through. However it wasn't the end of the rains but I had a full three or four hour window to get my 18' long yagi braced up with a over the boom support. I cut the 1in by 1in support down to about 12 and a half feet and riveted upright flat stock braces:




I want to say thanks to you guys so far for keeping the interest this project.

I haven't put it in the air yet, probably this weekend.
