What a project!  Lots of work, and lots of learning.

Many thanks to the primary "distance learning" elmers on this project: 
K8AZ and W8WWV.  Without their encouragement, knowledge and insight, 
this would not have happened.

The boots-on-the-ground help was WM5H, KF5GDJ, KF5GDK and KF5MTH.  
Laying out 4,500 feet of radials and stapling to the ground is lots of 
work; so is getting the support ropes and verticals in place!

Additional coaching on theory and testing provided by W3LPL, W3YQ, and 
K5RUS.

My "station engineering notebook" has always been my website.  I've 
documented this project here:
