This page is basically a memorial to my wife's late stepfather who helped me realize my life long dream of having a yagi antenna and tower. As a kid I always dreamed of easily working amateur radio stations in mysterious far away places and Bert helped make this little boy's dream come true.
Here's looking at you Bert, I hope that you are having your own version of a great DX day wherever you are buddy!
 

The Antenna is a Cushcraft A4S Tribander with a 30M/40M add-on element.
The Tower is a 40 ft. tilt-over/crank-up from US Towers
The Rotor is a Yaesu GS-800
